A.Misfin,

It may interest you to know that you are not our only member from Malta... I just can't seem to remember who the other one is...

[Edited by admin-JS] I just remembered who our other member from Malta is... # 782, his member name is Phoenix... His real name (revealed by himself in a message posting is Steve Petroni)... Perhaps you two are acquainted? He has an envious Member Gallery Album for a Navy Luger Rig that he owns...

Regarding strawing of stainless again...

I was on a website the other day that stated the strawing temperature for the stainless steels is around 700 F. About 200 degrees higher than that of regular steel.

This was not a gunsmithing site, but an automotive site talking about the discoloration of stainless exhaust headers.

chuck17 · 08-13-2004, 04:59 PM

That is cool. Friends have commented about the golden color of my stainless headers on my Suzuki Bandit, but I hadn't considered it "straw." They were in the white when I bought it new. I have been told that they will polish up nicely back to silver color, but will turn gold again quickly, so I haven't bothered.

Hi John,
