Thanks Vilm and Thor.

I've not seen or hear of laser welding around here; makes sense that it could do fine work.

But I'm guessing the cost would be pretty steep for a frame "covered" with pitting.

I may have hit the point of diminishing returns as Thor observes. If it were one of a kind or even one of a few, it would be somewhat different.

It works as it is, the history is still there in spite of it's neglected condition.
