Block repair with waterglass?

Posted by Tom in Texas on September 22, 2003 at 17:49:28 from (205.188.209.105):

I have a 1947 B Farmall with a cracked block. the previous owner had repaired it with something like JB weld but it had eventually failed. The local welders are less than enthisiastic about welding the block on the tractor and I want to use it for a year or two before it goes in for overhaul. One welder suggested using a guart of waterglass. I had heard about this years ago from some old timers but have never used it. The label says it is not compatable with antifreeze solututions. Does any one have any suggestions or tips that will help me? Thanks in adavance for your help.
