Re: " The Cherry Rifle " and my new floorplate fixture
Hi Ron, Merry Christmas. You can aneal platinum by heating it to cherry, and letting it cool. Make sure you are using pure platinum.
The problem is it work hardens when you hit it by the second or third blow. The key is to prepare your cavity very well and make sure your wire or sheet is sized just right.
I had not planned to sell these fixtures, however, I may in the future. The cost would be $950.00 as they are made one at a time, not cnc'd.
Thank you to Steve Lindsay for the free ad space, hehe.
