Garden Antiques For Sale

Will removing the centre section of an antique cast iron trough & welding it back together devalue it greatly?

I have an antique cast iron trough which I would like to fit into a recess and fill with plants. Unfortunately the trough is longer than the recess. If I arrange to have the middle section removed and the 2 ends welded back together plus drill holes for drainage will this greatly devalue the item?

Anytime you alter a antique it going to decrees its value. You need to ask you self is what Im doing worth what I am destroying... And weigh the pros an cons, is destroying a piece of history worth having a flower planter or yard ornament.. But on the same hand the more people who cut weld and alter them just makes the price of mine go up... So cut away... LOL
