Abstract
A method is provided for reworking a component. The method includes at least partially filling a cavity in a non-fusion weldable base alloy with a multiple of layers of a multiple of laser powder deposition spots formed of a filler alloy. Each of the multiple of laser powder deposition spots at least partially overlaps at least one of another of the multiple of laser powder deposition spots. The filler alloy may be different than the non-fusion weldable base alloy.
