Anyone have any instructions on welding one of these up? Where to make the cut? What rod works best (70/ 8018LH?) Preheat? Cool slowly or quench? I am thinking of drilling it out and putting a 5/16 X 2" rod down the middle, in effect, a spine. Or weld a piece on the back where it can't be seen to bridge over the weld. Jest thinkin'!
