Abstract
A source of heat energy and a source of material for performing a material additive process upon the thin wall member is disclosed. A fixture is located relative to the thin wall element. The source of heat energy used for forming a joining member between the workpiece and the fixture to fixedly secure the fixture to the workpiece preventing the thin wall member from deforming when subject to the source of heat energy. A direct material additive process is upon the thin wall member adding material to the thin wall member to improve physical characteristics of the thin wall member. The joining member is mechanically removed from the workpiece after the work piece cools. A portion of the material is mechanically removed from the thin wall member to achieve desired dimensional characteristics.
