Picked up an iron kettle today at an auction. It was in a pile with some fence stuff and some tobacco cultivator shanks. It is busted up pretty bad, cracked about half way around, about 1/3 the way up the side. It is in pretty rough shape, ain't seen lard in years. I don't need it for cooking but it would be nice to have a smaller 15 gallon extra one. I don't know if it would clean up much if it were welded up, but I could use it to dip hams in and stuff like that. Any way, I have heard some folks say they can be welded up and some say it can't. Does any one know if it can be patched up enough to hold water? At $25 for the pile of stuff I got it will make the wife a nice flower pot.
