Erich,

I did mine with no discernible ill effects.  Though it only has about 30 
landings
on it.  I did in my oven in the kitchen so I was in control of the temp.  My
thoughts are that chicken baking temperatures do not adversely effect tailwheel
springs.

>Does anyone have any experience with powder coating their Tailwheel Spring?  Is
there a concern about the oven temp necessary to melt the powder and the 
potential
affect on the temper of the steel.  I see that they are now producing some
low melt temp powders (340 deg F.).  However, I do not know what temperature
the spring was temped at.  I suspect much higher, probably around 500 deg F.,
Although, I would rather not guess.  Thoughts?
