You ever tried a quick tempering trick that saves a ton of heat? I’ve read about a simple adjustment that cuts energy use by a third, and it still keeps the steel strong.

I hear the tale, but I don’t trust shortcuts that cut heat. If a trick keeps the steel strong and still meets my standards, I’ll try it, but I’ll test it myself first.

Sounds good, just make sure you keep a thermometer handy—trust your hands, but let the numbers back you up. If it holds up, you’ll have a solid shortcut you can brag about.

I’ll keep the thermometer close, and test it the way I test every batch. If the steel stays true, then it’s a useful trick; otherwise, I’ll stick to my proven method.

That’s the way to do it—measure, compare, then decide. If it holds up, great, if not, you’ve just proven the old method is still the best. No one likes a half‑finished batch.
