We had a 5 hour layover on our way to Spain at Charles de Gaulle airport in Paris. In our case I’m counting the 5 hours as a good thing because that...

Heart Aerospace's electric airplane... https://youtu.be/xTaR93r0V40?si=rYReTMri3T3ofqGK

This comes down to to simple power output. An electric kettle is limited by the current draw from the socket: 10 A = 2300W here, I understand...

Got it! Thanks so much

I cut the stays from the top side first. photo from above.

I'm surprised that not all of your cookware is from Stabu/ Le Creuset. Issue solved, as cast iron is ferromagnetic ;). That was completely...

Hey Jamie, That's a good thought. I have some additional mounting hardware coming so that might be the ticket. I saw a video of Firefly...

I have mine on a horizontal mill and on a rotary table so I may not be much help. Looking at the RF-30 mill online maybe rotate the jig 90 degrees...

Check TOC or Mora. They have a lot of utensils. Dehillerin might also but it is a bit of an archeology project.

I believe there are, or were, 2 types of induction hobs, so some cookware can be compatible with one but not the other. That said, I think it's...

There's a kitchen tool district a block from Dehillerin in Paris - roughly Rue Montmartre and Rue Etienne Marcel - that I visited last time to buy...

Interesting discussion! Interesting because I used to believe you can not braze on stainless using regular flux and you needed 'black' flux with an...

Yeah, I think it can heat up a few sausage rolls. Yeah, well, that makes two of us. Current production should be labelled whether it's...

As a buddy of mine at work once told me, "It's called stain LESS, not 'will not ever stain at all.'"

Addendum too late to edit: Thinking about it while I made a coffee, saying the crystal structure affects the electron interaction is ass about:...

I think it easiest to explain it in terms of Curie temperature. All ferromagnetic materials have a temperature above which they lose their...

Ha, when I was working summers at a boat builder that built 12 meter America’s Cup racing sailboats the grumpy shop foreman made us polish and polish...

I'm getting a mesh basket.

and, according to my opinion, the most overrated and misunderstood material to have ever been added to the menu.

A former employer once told me: "There are two things to know about stainless steel: it aint stainless and it aint steel."

This reminds me of a test we took in elementary school, one where you had to color in the little circles so that a machine could tally the score. ...

Thanks for the post. Were it not for your post, I wouldn't even begin to suspect that austenitic steel is largely non-ferromagnetic. Blind spots...

Austenite can be made slightly magnetic by cold working. You're stretching my decades-old metallurgy memory (yes I should work on my flexibility) but...

An explanation I saw likened it to a lawyer not making a closing statement. The editorial page has laid out all this evidence and then forgoes the...

They are all 3-layered construction, but I can't remember what the middle is. Prolly aluminium. Interesting. Thank you. As an aside, my...

Two flavors of stainless steel are Ferritic and Austenitic. Ferritic has a body-centered cubic (BCC) microstructure, like iron. So it's magnetic....

Is your pasta pot aluminum cored?

Made from steel salvaged from a Soviet SSN, have you checked for radiation ?

Blimey, you are really spoiling us.

Yep, an induction hob boils water faster than an electric kettle.

Hahaha, there's not much to be told, really. This was European history, and I was a bit shit as the exam result so unequivocally showed. It may have...
