    Didn't notice this was in the TIG category. I would say ER70 or ER80 would do the job. Vee out the joint and try to limit the heat input and you should end up with something close to the original strength. Since you are going shorter, I'm sure it will be plenty strong.

    I have some ER70 on hand. I think I'll cut the waste in half and see how it works before I join the ends. Thanks!

    Grind the chrome back a little and it welds easy.
