You know, now that you mention it, I may have some of those alum rods to
"braze" with - I think I have some that will melt using propane but I
hopefully left the instructions with the rods. I'll look tomorrow.
Think that'll stick to cast iron? Pretty sure that's what the case is
made of but I have the specs around here I can check.
Thanks for the suggestion!!

How about using some of that aluminum solder rod that the AC people
use to solder the aluminum lines in AC units. You could solder the
perch right back onto the case. You may even be able to build it up a
bit to make it hold better. Should be stronger then JB weld. I used
some to fix a hole in the condenser joint on the 123 last year and it
has worked great so far. Got it at a welding supply store. It was only
about $28 for 5 sticks. If I remember right they have different
formulations for strength. Just takes a propane torch to do the job.

Might take a bit of doing, but could it be all that worse than my
welding the crankcase back together on my
tiller when it threw a rod through the side?
