Bill good to hear from you again! That is a good tip to keep in mind. It make sense since the coil stays very cool. I was out forging a small blade this morning and it's insane how fast it will heat and re-heat a 3/16 x 1" wide bar of 1084. Plus I was just using a small 14" length and never had to use tongs or gloves.
The shop temp never went up a degree and I never broke a bead of sweat.
