TROUBLE IN THE BLACKSMITH
! SHOP BY J. C. SCOLES, AT
ALASKA COLLEGE
| Larrv slowed down the blowei
and listened intently to what Nels
said The advice however . had
come too late. When he withdrew
the piece the corners of the bit
were sizzling white while the body
of the drill was only a reddish yel
low.
| 'Better cut it off,” advised Nels.
j'Tt is too hot at the corners, and if
Jvou finish it after being heated
[that way the corners will crumble. ’
Disgustedlv Larry grabbed the
hot cutter and held it while Nels
dd the striking. He reheated the
bit. this time slowly, turning the
steel frequently. When heated to
a yellow color, he drew it from the
fire and forged a new bit. The
color gradually faded and it was
necessary to reheat again before
the bit was formed to his satisfac
tion. When finished, the color was
still a good red, and he proceeded
*o quench the piece in the tub. Nels
caught, his arm before it was too
late.
“No! Man No!” he cried. “Cool
it before you harden it The steel
has been strained by the forging.
Let it cool slowly and these strains
v, ill work themselves out. Then
reheat for the hardening.”
Larry laid the cooling bit across
the ton of the forge and after a
moment's silence said: “That
has been my trouble. It has some
times been easy to harden the steel
or the same heat that I forged it
on. I see now that the steel must
be strained by the hammering it
has had. Cooling quickly doesn’t
let those strains adjust themselves.
When the drill is put on the rock
a few blows overtax the strainea
part and it breaks. I see it now.
By now the drill was cool, and he i
reheated it as before, siowly and
evenly. When a cherry red color
was re: ched, he withdrew it, plung
ed the tip into the cooling water
and a second later withdrew it. He
then polished the end and held it I
up to ?.• e light while lie watched I
the colors creep across the polished
tip. First the faintest yellow, then

darker and darker until it had be- J
come almost purple. When he fin- ■
ally deemed the color proper he
plunged the drill into the cooling
tub. “That’s the way I’ve treated j
them all,” he said.
“That last, part looks all right to
me”, replied Nets, “but I do think
you make a mistake when you tn
to forge and temper all on the
