Loon Yi ,

I thank you for the compliment ,I've been
practicing for many years. I got started because
of all the great welders and their nickel rod made
such messes of cast I knwe there had to be a better
method .And this shop being a machine shop (repair
machine work) , and also engine machine and rebuild ,
I get in all kinds of jobs .

The rod is available from most welding suppy
also need the flux to go with the rod . Harris/
welco ios one supplier , Tucker valve seat co in
odessa tx is another . Weldmold co in mich has
the rod and says that theirs is machinable as the
first two are machinable only with carbide . All
the rod was machinable untill about 5 years ago,
something has changed in the manufacture and now
it's hard . I still have 10 or 15 lbs of the old
rod, I keep that for building parts that need to
be drilled and tapped .
Back in the 50's I heard about introducing copper
into the weld , but I didn't understand it then
and since pretty much forgot about it.
