Thank you gentlemen. I agree that 1144 is a better material for this
application. I am a small quantity user. I could not find drops of 1144,
and 12L14 bar ends are available on Ebay for a reasonable price. This is
my first experience with 12L14, and for me 1144 machines better. I'm
sure this says more about my lack of skill than the qualities of the metal.
