    Thanks chaps ! My points were, It seems to be as soft as mild steel and was posted just taped to a piece of cardboard. Royal Mail must have given it more than a casual 'chuck it in a sack'.

    Anyway, I can't use it as I can't get it straight enough. I will buy a shorter length of tool steel or stainless.

    Yes Mike, it is ground.

    Cheers,
    Rob
