Me too, and I was just asking. I also have designed a lot of steel structures so I don"t come from a position of ignorance. Still I question mixing the 100 kis with the 60 ksi metal. I also would use the hotter rod but the hotter rod will tend to crystalize the metal more and quenching and hammer blows would be necessary. Otherwise the high strength steel does not mix well with the lower strength steel. In design we usually match the rod steel to the steel in the unit to be welded for best bonding. It is not personal and no insult was intended. You being an experience welder could probably take most any rod from 6011 to 10018 and make it work. The dobbers around could not take any combination of rods and get it to stick. To weave a weld in a V using a build up rod on a round pipe like you have described requires a lot of skill. This welding job under discussion needs a good and experienced welder to make it work. I have done a good bit of welding but it has been a while so I would not attempt this myself but would seek a welder who was working on a daily basis. If you don"t use it you will loose it and I think maybe I do not have the skill just now. Just saying it is mostly skill. Lmack :)

Out of the yard, over the cows and bale piles, through the dozer piles, poplars, and brush, out onto the ditch grade road, past the noisy 6.2 diesel engine pulling my well traveled Suburban along. Well it sure didn't take me long to figure out what it was because I alrea
