That's cool! We heat treat tool steel at work at 1775degrees in our oven all the time. When I was in grade school we where introduced to the metric system and told to expect and accept it. Kind of learned about it off and on through high school. Mostly how to convert to standard. Still doing that today. Most all prints we get need to be converted leaving room for error. All the tools in the shop are standard except digital tools have a button to use to switch measuring units. Bikes are all metric now. When is the rest of the world going to catch up?
