Re: Carbide / Hardening / Casting

Hate to break it to ya, but if you even could make a frame out of carbide, it probably would shatter the first hit you took, plus it weights a crap ton more than steel does. I know cause I use carbide cutting tools at work and it they flex anymore than .002 of an inch, they shatter.
