Tempering often refers to a series of lower temperature heat treatment steps to improve strength and toughness of a pre-heat treated or quench hardened component to relieve residual stresses.
I don't know what you mean by frequencies as it refers to tempering. For steels, you just need to look at a TTT diagram to get desired results for the quench hardened part. You are unlikely to utilize temperatures that will melt a part down during tempering stages. High temperatures are often for thermal hardening or solutionizing steps. Tempering is often done in 300-450F range for most steels for example.
The most important measurements you need to make to copy a V2 gearbox are location of gear sets, which need to mesh well. But since you are designing your own eventually, it becomes a moot point. In that case, you will want to know the overall outside dimensions of the V2 gearbox, because they represent your space constraints to fit inside most AEGs. So your own design must satisfy those space requirements. Also, location of holes and screw hols that hold a gearbox into position in the lower, become important to ensure your completed gearbox is located properly once secured into the lower.

You have never welded with aluminum have you? NiAl requires very intensive things when you temper it.. usually its best to do it in the modeling blocks.
Gear position does not need to be anything close to the standard Ill show you once i get the shell drafted
. The only thing that matters is the constraints of the physical size of the shell, that is, if you want to to fit into a standard gun. A great example of this is the Airsoft minigun what Gear box does that use? >.>
and kids I don't recommend using your cooking oven for tempering your steel mom will get mad, and you may burn down the house or yourself.
but thanks sleepy, this wasn't ridiculous at all.
