Does anyone here have experience of repairing cracked iron castings?, I'm renovating a Lister D generating set and the rear bearing support of the alternator is cracked, but still in one piece. It's quite a delicate casting and the crack has sprung apart but can be pressed back together with finger pressure. It won't be seen as it's under a spun cover so cosmetics aren't that important, but holding the rear bearing and the brushes is!. Before I start visiting the local engineering specialists I would be grateful of any advice. Greg
