[TheForge] forging stainless

[Ben Barrett]

Someone asked a similar question on ArtMetal.com and the few answers
there might help:
http://www.artmetal.com/brambush/forum/bramyak3/messages/38.html

and Solution Annealing is briefly explained here:
http://www.artmetal.com/blog/chris_shea/2008/09/stainless_steel_forging

Some finishing notes here:  http://www.finishing.com/257/24.shtml

that's just 30 seconds with google though.  Have you found anything
else as starters?
If you add "site:iforgeiron.com" or "site:artmetal.com" to "stainless"
in your search it will focus on either of those useful sites... :)
