I have a couple I bought for pcb etching, same idea but a much shorter flatted area so a hair stiffer, and depth rings preinstalled. As much glass dust as I've made with the first one, I think it would still work just fine in steel. Some day I'll have to try it. :) Cheers, Gene -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
