JeremyH 0 Report post Posted March 30, 2005 Make sure when you grind, hold to the wheel for 3sec at the most, do not let it get to hot becasue you can loose the temper. Which makes for a soft jaw which will be shot in a month or so. Gun blue it when your done to get the black look back. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
