I don't know about Australian armour plate, but British armour was welded with Nickel Chrome electric rods, hence the shiny welds. I do have a copy of a War Office booklet on armour plate welding. One thing for sure the edges of all plates to be butt welded have to be vee-ed out in order to get penetration. If armour plate is welded with normal rods, it can crack down the side of the weld, so best to use the correct procedures. I would think Colin Jones from Adelaide will be your local man on the subject. regards, Richard
