#WELDA Day 5 Weld repairing cast iron with cast iron filler rods

Welcome to the Greg's Garage #WELDA 2016 challenge.
Day 5 of @Greg's Garage #WELDA challenge, and I didn't make it to the shop to work on the lathe, but I found some footage of a weld repair I did some time back.

I used a cast iron filler rod to repair a cast iron part. My welding instructor showed me this technique, and I had to special order the rods for this job, as they are not a common item in the stores.

This is an alternative to the common method of using a highnickel arc welding electrode.

Here is a link to the product I used:
