I have plans to learn to weld to build a small frame for the brewing setup. In the mean time, I am designing a stand for a corona mill to be pedal powered.
The base for the mill will likely be black iron pipe with the corona mill mounted on an upright pipe. I could devise a fancy table top mount to clamp it to, or I was thinking I could cut the clamp off and mount the pipe (or a threaded coupler) directly to the bottom of the mill. If the iron pipe and cast iron were cleaned really well, could they be welded together?
If it's possible, this should be a pretty simple weld, I think. I may take it to a shop rather than tackle it myself (since I'll be cannibalizing a corona mill). Or if there's anyone in the area who welds, give me a shout. I'll ower you a case.
