[SEL] CAST IRON WELDING

[Mike Royster]

Bill:

  Curt Holland recently attended a hands on demo for welding cast iron and 
it is as Frank described, but I believe it was a new type of rod.  Chime in 
here Curt!

Re. Cast iron welding

What do we know, collectively, about welding our toys? I have always heard 
that it takes a trained technician using special equipment and rod to do a 
superlative job.
A few years ago ( before 9/11 ) I hauled a huge head to a shop in California 
that did nothing but cast iron repairs. it was expensive but beautifully 
done and worked well for as long as I had the engine. I wanted to watch but 
was not permitted to do so.
Thanks, standing by, Bill
Another question: Suppose this topic had been discussed 5 or 10 years ago. 
Would it be archived somewhere and still available?
