[TheForge] pot

[Andrew Vida]

If the crack is good and tight, I would furnace braze it... if you can 
fit it in your forge.  Get it hot, flux the crap out of it, lay in 
either chipped brazing rod along the crack or even copper.  Bring to 
heat until the filler flows.  I would make a pick from a wire coat 
hanger - cut about 8" or however many you may need to get at the joint 
while in the forge.  Forge/file a sharp point on the end.  When the 
solder is flowing you use the pick to draw the solder along the joint to 
ensure the entire crack has wet.

I have a griddle and a very large cast iron frying pan that need this 
treatment.  Soon.
