Bed surface

[breed]

Does anyone know what type of steel is normally used for spring steel sheets? 400 series stainless?

@breed I'd be interested to know this, too. I'd like to make an FR4/garolite sheet with a steel back, to attach to a magnetic bed.

I bought a sheet of 430. It seems about right.

But is it "magnetic" - a very quick search says it is not very.

@fcwilt Seems to stick. My brother is gonna cut it for me on the laser at work. Should know in a few days.
