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 :)

Today's Featured Article - Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
