Thank you .... I seem to always keep the heat on too long... I counted, your video shows only about 5-6 seconds (and of course watch for the dull red color) and I didn't know to wait for the metal to turn black before quenching. WOW, learned a lot this morning.

"So glad it helped you to learn! It can be quite tricky to know when the metal has reached annealing temperature and when it's had too much heat. There's also a few variables such as the size and thickness of your metal and how hot your blow torch is!"
