[QUOTE="catmansteve, post: 319291, member: 8490"] Had a local welder fix my broken foot the other day. I did all the prep work so all he had to do was weld it. Said he put it in the oven to heat it up, welded the crack and filled in the missing chunk with tig, then put it back in the oven to cool down so the welds wouldn't crack. Charged $90 for it, which was better than I expected. I smoothed up the inside with a flap disk and went ahead and beveled the leading edge and sharpened the grates while I was at it.
