I apologize for any cross postings

As we were cleaning our turn of the 20th century iron and wood school desks this week we discoved that two of the desks have fractures in the iron legs and supports.  The breaks are all the way through, and you can see where the stress on the metal is already starting to bend the metal pieces apart.  They are still fairly stable, and the breaks are clean.  What I was wondering is if it is possible to have the metal repaired, and if it is possible, where could I look to get someone to do the repairs.

Thank you in advance for any help or suggestions.
