I've been asked if this weather vane is repairable, it's a mix of cast iron and steel and the casting has broken with a piece missing. What is the crack with welding cast? Can a steel rod be drilled or welded to the lower section for the vane to spin on? Top could then be welded to the top of the rod. I've never tried to weld cast but heard it can be done, I have a mig with 5% argon and can stick weld with the same machine. Any advice?
