Good evening,
I intend to make my own graver by using 0,125 inch steel road currently available in hardware store. They are two unknowns that I hope you can help with.
1. can I temper them with simple propane torch used in plumbing. Should I used water or oil to temper them?
2. Rod available in hardware stores do not indicate carbone percentage. Is the carbon percentage important?
Thank you for your assistance
