George, I was wondering just that, how do you tell if it is cast steel, grinding and observing the sparks ? I'm hoping that part is not obsolete, I have no idea the vintage of this thing. I know welding cast is tricky and I don't have a forge or similar for pre & post heat, + the electrode, and the process I am not familiar with, especially torch welding, but do understand what you said, would be my first attempt at it anyway, better to let an experienced hand do that.
Is the procedure for welding cast steel any different than say welding mild A-60 type steel, I am dialed in on my Miller NT251 trailblazer and am very proficient with 7018 now, I can also set the piece to work in position on the bench etc, so no problems trying to get a stick in tight place, vertical etc. It would be great if that could be done similar to mild steel, as my repairs with 7018 always hold up.
