    They caught on, but with more appropriate stainless alloys. Columbus has XCr, Reynolds has 931. Either can be brazed, or silver soldered into lugs, or TIG welded. Cinelli does mass…

    McMaster also sells discs of tool steel and glass bearing balls... and carbide, and ceramic, etc. What if the bearing ball was carbide, even harder? What would happen if you reduce…
