Nice sinusoidal stake, do you think you made it big enough? Now when you say an axle was it from a car or a truck? Are all axles 1045H? I like the way you made it to hold in a vise, I know what you mean by having to readjust.
I made some from HF pry bars. Little small on the diameter now since I have used them.
Also made another raising stake couple of weeks ago out of 1" diameter 1018. Did a super quench on it for a hardened surface and came out great.
Nice stake

Well lets see what you make on it.
