[TowerTalk] Safe to buy 45G with a broken weld or bent rod?

[Daryll Webb]

Hr is one of many ways to get the inside wall covered. Would need allot of cleaning but may be worth it. http://www.zrcworldwide.com/p_zrc.asp
A guy may be able to swab with string or rod?  or use funnel and pore?
A wish I would have looked into this more when I did mine. Might have been worth it.

Where every you weld on the outside the galvanizing will likely be 
burned off on the inside and likely at least half an inch farther than 
the actual weld. That's why the welding is done before they hot dip 
galvanize.
