I didn't weld because there is so much impossible-to-clean oil between the laminations that I doubt I would have gotten a clean weld. Avoiding the spot welds meant drilling was easy. The whole job took less than an hour.Waynos Waynoshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04350111065141264206noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8796610487071943623.post-59832236234162396672021-05-20T06:38:51.754+10:002021-05-20T06:38:51.754+10:00Hello Waynos, I think your cut and shut method is ...Hello Waynos, I think your cut and shut method is promising. On a cheap bar with no heat treatment on the rails there would be little to lose. I can't do tig so I don't know if the welding is slow enough to avoid creating hard spots around the weld, that might need some tempering after the welding. Would you use a copper piece in the bar groove to hold the space open while welding? The stepped cut idea could be good but much slower.

So much more info than I had imagined and for that I thank you.<br /><br />I had planned to cut a section out and TIG weld it back together. Faster but probably not safer. Unless I cut one side an inch away from the other, avoiding the spot welds, to give it bending/sideways strength once welded.
