It will be a while before I do anything with the canister billet. At this time I'm more interested in learning this forging stuff, both with canister, twist, and perhaps straight billet. The press is very new for me and lots of learning to do. I've got a couple more canister billets I wish to make before working on a blade. One will be a 52100 ball bearing canister, and dreaming of a El Campo meteorite canister billet. I've got a small bit of that meteorite in chips that could be spread thru a 1084 powder billet. I'm thinking I need to wait a while on the meteorite canister to learn more.
BillyO, in my response to your question above about "how to", that is very much an Ed question so we'll have to wait until he returns from his medical tests in a couple of days.
