Loon Yi , I thank you for the compliment ,I've been practicing for many years. I got started because of all the great welders and their nickel rod made such messes of cast I knwe there had to be a better method .And this shop being a machine shop (repair machine work) , and also engine machine and rebuild , I get in all kinds of jobs . The rod is available from most welding suppy also need the flux to go with the rod . Harris/ welco ios one supplier , Tucker valve seat co in odessa tx is another . Weldmold co in mich has the rod and says that theirs is machinable as the first two are machinable only with carbide . All the rod was machinable untill about 5 years ago, something has changed in the manufacture and now it's hard . I still have 10 or 15 lbs of the old rod, I keep that for building parts that need to be drilled and tapped . Back in the 50's I heard about introducing copper into the weld , but I didn't understand it then and since pretty much forgot about it. george
