I have a large hole to repair, what is the best method?
Start with a clean area, tin the entire inside of the hole. Now clamp a piece of steel to the backside of the hole. Once the hole as been tinned you can work right in the flame with the rod you are merely adding rod to the existing rod and this can be done at 700°. When the hole is full allow to cool and machine til smooth. also to save the rod, try cutting a patch for the inside of the hole.

I can't seem to get a good bond, any suggestions?
Please reference our »instructions page« or »email us« and we will try to help you out. The first thing to make certain of is this: DO NOT PUT THE ROD IN THE FLAME. Heat the metal and melt the rod with the metal, not the flame. This seems to be the most common first time mistake.
