Thanks Doug. I didn't realize that Kevin C. had described it. I think it has been shown by other folks too. Mostly, I was just thinking that while it may not matter at all to the true grain of the steel for heat treating purposes, it doesn't hurt to consider how it came from the mill, or where ever. I have seen scrap, like polished ball bearings, show a directional pattern in it when it's heavily etched, but you're correct, I don't believe that is representation of the grain of the steel. Maybe it's just keeping things in mind that are not always ideal.
Take care, Craig
