In Reply to: Welding holes shut posted by super99 on December 18, 2020 at 04:19:05:
I ain't much of a welder and I just woke up, so forgive if I don't make sense. I have to wonder why you are closing the hole, unless you plan to re-drill through that spot? Wouldn't welding the hole closed make said hole much harder steel than the plate? How would that affect re-drilling? If filled with weld, would there be a likelihood that the hole would be brittle and fail prematurely?
So then this thought crosses my mind. What about the possibility of putting in a piece of 5/8'' steel rod, cutting it flush, then surface-welding it to the plate? Once it was ground flush, there should be enough penetration that the weld would extend below the surface, right? ....Or should I go back to bed?
