Good evening all
Anybody any suggestions for tubular metal repair. One of our darling family has damaged the metal frame on a piece of our terrace furniture (it’s hardly had any use so would like to repair than replace) Not being a metal worker or welder I don’t know if it will spot weld or alternative method Thanks in advance for your help and suggestions
Probably going to struggle welding that because you can't take the covering off by the look of it.
Even with some protection during the welding the heat may damage the covering.
You could try using 2 jubilee clips & some strips of metal bar perhaps.
Cut 2 pieces of bar, lay them across the broken tube & secure with the jubilee clips.
Won't be pretty but it might work.
