crude but i used i half worn 4" angle grinder disc srewed it wear i needed the hole with washer and self tapper them run the plasma cutter around it come out perfect and as a finnisher i got a bit of alloy checker plate on the face plate of the lathe and bashed a ring out thats half inch smaller than hole on inside and 1 inch bigger over all and pop riveted it on looks as good as a £40 trim buy ( well u all know how dose them ) :lol:

what you are on about is a form of arc gouging we used to use them at work with a compressor to cut big i mean realy big bits of old steel same as a thermic lance they use to cut under water the ones that i posted i have seen these rods work before few years ago we snapped a bult off in a track sproket on a 21tonne digger and the guy come out with these and used it to remove it and just run a tap to clean the flux coating out the treads i dont know how good it would be on small stuff but it saved us never seen them advertsied before now
