Hi All,
I seem to remember from my long ago Apprentice days that you do not grind
Cast Iron if you are going to weld it because somehow the grind wheel causes
a change in the metal surface by putting impurities into the surface.
If you do grind off the worse of the metal to form a bevel or such, it
should then be dressed with a File to take of the affected surface.
Regards
Clif
