looking for welder

[OGDENS SUGAR BUSH]

I have a 4 x 8 raised flue pan with about 15 cracks and small holes on the tips of the flues. It happened when my feed line plugged up and the pan ran low.
Does any one know of a good welder in southern New England that could do a reasonable job fixing it.

Thanks Luke

have you checked with Bill Mason, he is located in Chapel Maine

Who ever is doing it make sure they drill at each end of the cracks, to stop the cracks from spreading. I have done a few of them from people that repaired them prior.

What size drill bit should be used? Thanks for the info, never heard of drilling the ends of the cracks

It doesn’t need to be very big. Just enough to make a round stop at the end of the crack to keep it from wanting to spread.

I think Bill Mason is on Chapel street, Porter Maine.
