you could use jb weld/metal filler. if done right I don't see why it wouldn't hold up. Welding would be the easier route but isn't the only way.

Use a metal backing, piece of cut sheetmetal or mesh, something like that, then you can bend over it, and then use glaze. Thats what I did on some of mine and it came out great
