Allen, with a TIG welder with variable foot pedal control the "heat" can be adjusted on the fly. So just hot enough to melt the new filler and not so hot you melt down the pile. Or something like that.. and a little practice though really not difficult if you can run a TIG welder some already.

Thanks Phillip,
