| Water Spray Quenching—A New Intensive Quenching Process for Case Hardening of Gears |
What if you could case-harden gears faster than oil quenching, use cheaper steel, and skip the surface scaling entirely? A new water spray quenching process paired with vacuum heat treatment does exactly that—through-hardening test parts in just 28 seconds.

| The Art of the Repurposed Past |
Bruce Rosenbaum, reimagineer and owner of ModVic, LLC, said the air at Snow Farm, the New England Craft Program located in Williamsburg, MA, is usually filled with the scent of sawdust or the glow of a kiln. but recently, it hummed with a different kind of energy—mechanical, historical and re-imaginative. Under Rosenbaum’s guidance, a group of 10 skilled artists and makers showed that when it comes to art, they certainly know how to ‘shuttle’ in a new era of creativity.
