ms 046 461 272 372 husky husqvarna

I was thinking about STICK WELDING a west coast saw exhaust port on a MS 461 muffler. Will the exhaust handle the heat from the welding? What do I need to use as equipment? Has anyone done this before ? Cheers!

Here you go guys. Picked this one up a while ago and since I've got 1 or 2 other saws :innocent: I'll be letting it go down the rd so someone can put it to work. Just had it out yesterday and had a little fun running it in some ash with a 24, or I guess stihl calls them a 25 lol. I'll get some...
