RobinJI Posted September 10, 2006 Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 (edited) Should think that heating it would work nicely, with the alloy body having a higher expancion rate than the steel/brass olive. (think alloys higher than brass andway? I'll have a look at my college books in a while, if i can find it)edit: just not too much or you'll screw up the alloy.
