I have been to 3 aluminium welders (one being an aviation welder) they have all reported back saying it will not weld because of the impurities within the aluminium. I am thinking of getting one or some cast up, I will machine up new pegs and bore out the holes with a CNC milling machine. Kind Regards Brian
I've checked with the foundry and fortunately they still have the mould - it's been quite a few years since it was made - so I've ordered a few more. Might even be cast today.
