Hardening and Tempering
This vintage book contains a collection of classic articles on the subject of the hardening and tempering processes in blacksmithing. Although old, these articles contains a wealth of timeless information that will be of considerable utility to modern blacksmiths. “Hardening and Tempering†would make for a valuable addition to collections of allied literature and is not to be missed by the modern blacksmithing enthusiasts. Contents include: “Modern Steel Hardening Plantsâ€, “Hardening Steel, by E. R. Markhamâ€, “Pack-Hardening Gages, by E.R. Markhamâ€, “Forging, Hardening and Annealing High-Speed Steel, by W. J. Toddâ€, “Local Hardening and Tempering, by William A. Painterâ€, “Electric Hardening Furnacesâ€, and “Miscellaneous Hardening Methods and Suggestionsâ€. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on blacksmithing.
