Welding steel handles onto Sledge Hammer and Splitting Maul heads (TIG steel)

[KSmith]

Here's what Jody says about it @ welding tips and tricks. Skip to 5.30 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=McjBJyQ85fg There's a little more info on the page.
Cold galvanizing can be purchased at most places selling spraypaint. I buy the tall cans of rustolium brand at Lowes.

Thank you for the link to Jody's video. I missed that one. Good information. I have a home depot and will look for the cold galvanizing there.
