Ejicate me, please!
Speedy metals shows the 4140 as Cold rolled, annealed. They also have de-carb free, both annealed and heat treated.
Annealed means softened, right? So that isn't what I want?
What is de-carb?
Would this be a good choice for a tangential tool holder? (Another, future project...)
And getting back to the original question I posted. I cleaned and reassembled the vise, lightly stoned a ding or two, and trammed the mill head with my new Shars cylinder square. The vise is holding a lot better, so new jaws may not be needed.
Thanks for all the suggestions and encouragment. This is a great forum!
