    Welding a splicing anchor

    My initial thought was epoxy topped with sand or crushed concrete just to mask it...but either way. It'll be strong enough and leave little evidence when I leave. Carl, remember that splice we did at the rendezvous in MS? We woulda yanked a stud outta the wall on that one for sure! love nick
