Great result lads - some decent finds there.

That name plaque is a bit special Rob - nice to be able to trace something and it doesn't come more accurate than having an adress on it! Well done.

Cheers

phil the quenching will only work on materials like copper silver.steel and iron are a different kettle of fish it depends on the carbon content usually quenching will harden these materials in this case you get it to a workable condition by heating it to cherry red and letting it cool naturally this process is called annealing.hope this helps pm me if you need more info.
