Repair a cast iron table

<< < (2/2)

doubleboost:
Just ignore them
They will not have any effect on the mill
Like has been said use JB weld or similar

shipto:
I agree with the why bother comments none of the breakthroughs will have any bearing on how the mill works and any repairs would probably look almost as bad as the damage.

SwarfnStuff:
Gotta agree with the why bother comments. Still, if you want to fill for cosmetic reasons go with the JB weld or epoxy. Either will work with some iron or preferably cast iron filings puddled in before the hardener. I foolishly caused a few divots in my X2 mill table "so no one else to blame". I used epoxy + cast iron filings. Looks better but as has been said still visible.

chipenter:
The rest of the mill cleaned up pritty well just the table looks bad , will try cast swarf ang glue at least if will feel flat .
