Re: cold weather welding

[Afterhours Fabrication <afterhoursfab@xxxxxxxxx>]

There's really no reason to preheat the metal because of the cold. Even if its at 0°, you're only talking about maybe a 70° change from when it "isn't cold." Carbon steel melts around 2700°! A small change in base temp isn't going to effect the final result. Now cast is a whole other story.....
