I've welded chipper blades with 7018 rods. I doubt the back of the bucket is hardened steel anyway.
Might have work hardened a bit where it's cracked, thus giving the appearance of hardened steel.

I have always been told that 7018 have to be stored in an oven to run correctly. They are really sensitive to moisture. I've used them before but I like a 7014 better.
Yea. I haven't thought about that. I don't have an oven at the farm and usually don't have two hours to wait on my rods to dry out.
