    Steve, I'm so sorry to see how your machine looked when it arrived. Were you able to fix it? Too bad the seller didn't listen to you.

    OH, that's so sad. How would you fix that? Weld it?

    Cannot weld cast iron. The damage from brazing would be worse... I am using JB Weld to "steel epoxy" it back together. Here is a picture of one seam being joined. It takes two days to dry between each piece being added.

    What a disappointment. Just awful. Did you tell the seller, and did they have a response? I hope your TLC will bring it back to life.

    I don't know. Looking close at listing front pic the scallop near where broke looks misshaped. .
