Yikes, I hope I didn't just shoot off my mouth and say something stupid -- wouldn't be the first time. My impression is that cyanide is used in hardening steel and that it can be released by cutting it. Maybe I'm wrong. Or maybe it's not a significant hazard. I tried to get my tripod legs cut down a year or so ago and one of the places I went said there was a problem because of cyanide. I had already had that impression, too, but I'm not sure where I got it in the first place. Other than that I don't know much. Best wishes, Joe
