Anyone using a Hardness tester here? My Son and I just went to Clark/Sun-tec who are located just up the road. Wonderful learning experience! Ended up getting a super deal on a refrubed stationary tester. All USA parts and labor. Small Midwest place. Family type of store. They even deliver it, do setup,and short training exercise.
Anyway: Learned about:
leeb
ultrasonic
brinell
rockwell
file type testers.
Which do you use if anything? I needed it for my other life and the Son needed it to check hardness of his work which I'd rather not guess with. Too brittle or too soft. or just right - Seems like it should all be part of a repeatable recipe once you get into testing the Rc values.
School me? Comments? I'll pass it onto the 18yr old. Stick it under his Cereal bowl. ;-)
