I have a block that has suffered damage to one of the locating stud holes to gearbox. Accident damage. It needs a copper round insert to be made to weld with what I think are these gemini 98 welding rod for cast iron. There is still half a hole there .Should I even bother. Thanks Ian |

Can you drill and tap it further in? |

I would weld the boss up solid with castcraft 100 (100% nickel) electrode then re-machine the hole on the mill. The nickel deposit is fully machinable. |
