[PSUBS-MAILIST] overlay welding

[hank pronk via Personal_Submersibles]

Hi All,I am back to work on Elementary 3000 and first on the list is to overlay weld my hatch seat with stainless steel and machine it down again.  I am building a vertical turret lathe instead of using my flange facing machine.  I am building the lathe as an experiment also for a future project.  My question is, what type of SS wire should I use.  There is a chance that the sub will see salt water.   I need to keep in mind that the material needs to be machining friendly.Hank
