Handbook of Mold Tool and Die Repair Welding by Stephen Thompson. Tool steels should be pre-heated or even annealed before welding and then cooled carefully or even post-heat treated. But in all my years of welding tool steels, I have never been allowed to anneal a tool before welding because the customer would never accept the increased downtime and cost! This book, therefore, tells the repair welder how to compromise between what the customer wants and how best to give him that within the constraints of good welding practice. This book covers most of the aspects of mold, tool, and die repair TIG (tungsten inert gas) welding at shop floor level as well as the relative technical areas.
