<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:12.0pt">Thinking
about the discussion here made me realize that I only have a
relatively fuzzy undersatanding of steel making, and some
people on this list seem to understand the process much
better. I decied to try and pick some knowledgable brains.<br>
<br>
1. Can someone here recomend a good reference on small scale
steel making with charcoal. I Know it is/has been done in
small villages in several parts of the world with relatively
low technology, often with excelent results. <i>Example: the
two kinds of steel folded into a katana (samuri sword) by
Japanese sword makers.</i><br>
<br>
2. If I wanted to render the old Mazda pickup and Ford van in
my back yard into different types of steel, what parts shoudl
I start with and what should I do?<br>
a. to get a very hard steel, <br>
b. to get a very elastic springy steel<br>
c. to get an easily worked steel for a balcksmiths forge?<br>
