[QUOTE="lunkerslayer, post: 476663, member: 217"] Correct nick 55 is the one ,i buy a small spool for the mig just for cast iron. I like to polish the cast iron up with a grinder that way you can see how many cracks there are, then drill 1/8 holes at the end of each crack, use a grinder to cut v grooves along the cracks or where it broke off, then i run the rose bud over the pieces until they are cherry red, each each crack get short welds, followed by a rap with a ball peen hammer, continue this process until piece is complete. I uave an old steel tub that i heat up again with the rose bud and dump in filter sand about have way, place in the cast iron dcover with more sand and place a steel plate on top. Leave in there for a good 24 hours. I welded up 2 piece cast iron pulley off of an old air compressor that is still good. Of course this was many years ago before you could find replacement parts on the web. Like i said it can be done [/QUOTE]
