I've been given this rapidor power hacksaw for free. It needs a lot of work but it is almost all there.
It has a problem, the bow is broken
My plan to repair it is to drill and tap through the top into the broken section and put a cap head bolt in to strengthen it and pull the joint together, then v around the break and Tig brazed it. I don't have a lot of experience with cast iron repairs.
Any idea if this will be strong enough or any other suggestions welcome.
