so today I tried to use the magnum steel at the bequest of my mother and it failed miserably. When I tried to drill it out, the bit cocked over and ripped the cast piece off. This all leads me to ask what you mean by peening it. I am not the welder but I do want to let the friend who is doing it to know how to do it. What EXACTLY should I ask the guy at the welding supply for as for rod?
Thanks alot!!!
the rod 700 weld mold can be found on the net the place weld mold that make the stuff is in mich .peining is done rigth at the time you stop welding .this is done till it cools off with a small ball pein hammer this help relieve stress at the time of welding this may not be much fun in the car.you will need a dc welder
