I purchased a second hand aluminium saw and discovered the fence was cut up.
The fence still works okay just looks terrible.
I do not know what type of ali it is so I turned my AC Balance to max cleaning and used a good old 5356 filler rod. After all this is not structural just cosmetic.
Any way after a couple of runs it dressed up good enough.

Hi GNForge,
Thanks mate.
I was surprised how well it welded for cast, I guess you get lucky sometimes.
