In this review, the author shows a way to repair a leg from a sewing machine (there is no piece of iron casting).
For repair, the author uses cold welding. This is one of the easiest and most affordable ways to repair decorative cast iron products.
First of all, the leg of the sewing machine needs to be cleaned with a grinder.
Further, in the place where there is no piece of iron casting, the author drills holes. They will need to insert a piece of wire.
The main stages of work
At the next stage, using cold welding, we sculpt with our hands the missing part of the leg.
After cold welding hardens, the restored area will need to be sanded.
With the help of a drill, the author processes the "patch", giving the necessary shape.
The result was very good. Although, of course, you need to try to make everything go smoothly.
After that, you can start painting the restored legs. First, coat the metal with aerosol primer.
Then you can already paint the leg with 1-2 layers of spray paint. To give the product more decorative, you can make the effect of patina.
