Thanks to the two of you for the info about annealing and hardening.
I can remember doing that as a kid when I used to make model aircraft
undercarts, but had long forgotten the details.
But the aluminium I used to use was an alloy that's much stiffer than
the aluminium I usually find in shops.
Is there an easy ( and cheap ) source of an alloy that's more suitable
than bog-standard soft ali ?
