Reply:Zapster, Did you cut it out with a plasma or a torch or something else I seem clueless about.  I never even thought of this paper mold idea.  Seems brilliant to me, maybe I should try another welding school doesn't seem like I know very much (gggrrrrrr...)Laura MM 180Chop SawDewalt grinderhelpful husband

Reply:Laura,He said he cut out the filler patch on the bandsaw.Zap,When I saw the first pic I thought you were going to fill in the whole hole with just the TIG and filler rod!  Clean looking weld you did there, unlike the original head-to-roller weld!
Reply:Yep thats    Looks like a great repair!Mickey Mouse  weld it like you own it

Reply:Yea I missed the whole band saw part.  Sorry about that.  I hope I can find somewhere to work in NC I've found nothing on the web but really need to team up with an experienced welder to show me the ropes.  We're gearing up to move next month, hubby is Air Force.  Can you tell me what exactly a welder's helper is? Or maybe that's just a term they use here.Laura MM 180Chop SawDewalt grinderhelpful husband

Reply:Yea that's what I was thinking, I don't mind doing grunt work at all.  I need to be able to pay for child care and still be a mom so hopefully I'll find something and luck out.  Thanks for the tips.Laura MM 180Chop SawDewalt grinderhelpful husband
