[TheForge] quench questions

[Chris Kilpatrick]

A little of the subject,
     Has anyone ever tried quenching in antifreeze?  High boiling point would tend to reduce stresses below 400 degrees, I bet it would cool almost as fast as water.  Just worried about vapor/smoke.

It is I who formed the blacksmith, 
who fans the flame into a fire and
fashions a weapon fit for it's work.
