The trick is to become an artist with the cut off wheel in short order.
Quoted for truth.
You might be able to just remove the part of the patch that is covering the console corner. Just grind that part of the weld off, and then cut the patch layer along the console edge- it should be easy to extend a scribe line from the part of the edge that is not covered.
Also, if no part of that console is salvageable, I would just cut the exposed part of it out of the way, then you can pry on the remainder from the inside, so to speak.
That is the plan of attack, but at each point I have sought the path of least resistance and have been sliding incrementally down the slippery slope to total war. If I can get out of this without having to replace the entire section, I will call it a win. Anything better than that will be a miracle!
