Weld up all the seams on the bucket?
Original Message   Dec 23, 2012 10:24 am
Hi all, first post.

I moved to a new house with a bigger driveway this year and decided that I needed a bigger snow blower.  I picked up a Simplicity 860 and pulled it apart.  The bucket has some rust on the bottom and I will need to cut out the area that the cutting edge bolts to and weld in new. Ill then have it blasted and repaint.

So while I have the welder running, I'm thinking of welding up all the seams on the bucket that are currently stitched in.  Other than taking time, and the possibility of warping the metal if done incorrectly, is there any reason I should not do this?
