Looking through some old RWs, I came across a picture of a bell which had
had bad crown cracks and had been repaired by Soundweld. The bell had lost
its canons, and what they appeared to have done was created a flat pad in
the centre of the crown, much like a modern bell has. Does anyone know
whether they usually do this when repairing crown-cracked bells which have
lost their canons?
