"Kentucky Chrome" ; Cold Weld on a Hot Day - C. in Indy - 08-04-2016 Some skilled-trade guys at work used to refer to duct-tape as "Kentucky Chrome"... In that spirit, here is a J-B Weld repair of a casting that has been overly "stress-relieved" (cracked).   I chain-drilled 2 slots, and epoxied-in 2 pieces of aluminum for strength.  It seems like it's going to be a workable repair for my "ugly tools" department: [attachment=64] RE: "Kentucky Chrome" ; Cold Weld on a Hot Day - hbmcc - 08-04-2016   (((((Longer than five characters..... .)))) RE: "Kentucky Chrome" ; Cold Weld on a Hot Day - Window Guy - 08-05-2016 That stuff is amazing and if it works that is all that matters, actually you gave that plane some character  .

Who cares what it looks like as long as it makes wood shavings. RE: "Kentucky Chrome" ; Cold Weld on a Hot Day - Stwood_ - 08-05-2016 ....
