[QUOTE="HSmithTX, post: 2650021, member: 121677"] I would reinforce across the break with some dog bones of good spring steel shim stock after the repair, I am guessing without seeing the piece that you could do it on the inside where it wouldn't be visible. If you silver solder them you get a TON of surface area and reinforcement, you could tig 3 points on the ends and two on each side too and get a lot of strength back. Apply the bones hot and when they cool they will pull everything together a tiny bit too. If you are worried about it bending when it cools if you tig them on you could temper in a jig that will hold it straight. [/QUOTE]
