Here is the 404 x 8 cut down to fit lo-pro. Every drive link meshes perfectly. Not much meat left on this ported rim, though
I experimented with annealing and then re-heat treating this 8 pin rim. That didn't go well. It only partially annealled. The machining operation still chewed up the carbide bit.
Then I heated to 1660 F and quenched it in oil. It doesn't seem that hard, I can still cut it with a file.
Hmmmm..... I may try again with a higher temperature.
Meanwhile, this is good enough to test for speed and driver peening.
