Might want to consider/thinking about drilling & pinning
too. You have a lot of material to work with on the main
side. This should help with the braze/weld repair.

You might get away with one or two recessed cap screws also.
Two grade 8 cap screws set side by side would be pretty
strong, especially with maybe 3/4 inch or so of threads
caught in the main jaw area.

For drilling & pinning, would I use some drill rod and make the hole
slightly smaller then press it together, then V it out and weld?
Regarding one or two recessed cap screws , are you talking in place of
the broken piece?
This guy at work is a pretty good welder, but he does more like
fabrication and welding on snow plows and tractors,and the like, don't
know how he is on little precise stuff.
Thanks, Tony
