Nice work on that clutch cover. The final product turned out
great. Once that cover gets powder coated no one would ever
know it was ever broken like that. I like seeing saws like
that being restored and put back together.

Very cool
Fixing embed link.
Welding up a busted out clutch cover for an old Solo Twin
chainsaw that is destine for a complete restoration with every
part powder coated. The part is magnesium, probably die cast and
like most cast mag parts, probably a pretty dirty alloy. Using
AZ92A filler and a Lincoln Tig 300 welder.

You cannot weld those things up with out a little bit of
pitting.

There is no way I could ever get all the pits out, you notice
how there are two distinct lines of pits on the outside, one was
the heat effected zone of my first pass into the base metal the
other was my second pass to blend and help tapper onto the base
metal. I do this so there isn't a distinct line where the new
material meet the old, hopefully making it stronger in the long
term.
If I was painting it I would have tried another couple of passes
to fill in the majority of the pits, but since it's going to be
powder coated and it was well known it'd need some filler I left
it alone with my first pass so I wouldn't have to sand any
deeper into the original material to blend everything back in.
