The spikes are up around 45 Rc hard

You could stick weld them with low hydrogen rod. But I would try to get them hot, up around 500 degrees first and then post heat them after welding and let the cool slowly.
We should share what we know... someone may learn...
That knowledge can live after us... and that "Pays It Forward".

Can you post a picture of the spikes showing where the break is.
I have 2 inner dawgs on poulan 505 saws that are broke in the thin area in the middle now. Seems like a weak area IMO. Wondering if it is feasible to weld dawgs back together?

I bet you could too.

 Jacks shows they are still for sale and not NLA like I thought.

Out of curiosity I went to Jacks small engines and I can still get new for $5 a piece  8) 8). I guess I will just add some to my next big order to absorb the $7.99 shipping.   PN# 503424101    SPUR  $5.00

For those of you who may interested in welding this is an 8500 crankcase hit by a chain.  I wanted to show this because it can demonstrate how an edge can be built back up by using a material behind it that will not stick to the magnesium while welding.  If you do not do this with thin castings such as on this saw it will just fall away when the puddle forms.
