Sometimes it's nice when you do want to build up a big weld too.

I had to make a new feed screw for the tail stock on my lathe, and just turned down the shaft from a length of acme threaded rod. But it also needed a solid thrust collar in the middle of it all. I would not have wanted to try doing this with my Mig welder.




Works good for replacing missing crankcase lugs on chainsaw engines too. Just build up a new one!
