The Alumiweld works if you can keep the parent metal at the required 730 degrees, which I had a hard time with. First one did not work, second one worked well, but I could have used more practice, first time I used it.

Aluminweld, bonds to the parent metal it is not integrated into to as with a weld. It however is very solid......key is how clean the parent metal is too, stainless brush and some acetone need to be used.....I probably could have taken more time in cleaning.
