The burner grate on our stove broke, new one is $180 so that ain't happenin'. I tried JB weld, lasted about a week. It's magnetic, and you can see from photo there's some rust on the broken surface, so I assume it's cast iron with some kind of baked on enamel finish. Any suggestions on how to braze or weld this. I'm good with gas or tig, have done some gas brazing but mostly welding.

Grab a six-pack, and spend a morning at a large flea market. Maybe $25 total (beer, fuel, and replacement grate), an entertaining morning, and done...

If I go to a flea market with a six pack, I'll come home with 3 used welders and no grate.

And about a 10 vise grips. $180 is ridiculous as well
A student now but really want to weld everyday. Want to learn everything about everything. Want to become a knower of all and master of none.
