Hi Gents,
I have actualy tried this and what I found was that the steel didn't heat treat properly and came out too soft. then when I needed to place the steel back in the oven, the oven itself was too cool, and then took time to heated back up to the temperature I needed.
remember the Oven needs to be pre-heated to the temperature before the steel
goes in.
This is my way of doing it from experience and training with other Smiths I know - BUT, I have no doubt others may have different ways of doing a Heat treat for O!
hope this helps
