What are VW brake drums made from?

They are cast iron.
Your friendly, local welding shop can help you.

  Wondering if they are steel or cast iron.  I would like to weld something 
  onto one, but if they
  are cast iron that would be waste of time with the mig welder.  And before 
  anyone asks, no
  I am not repairing one or anything like that.  It's for something other 
  than being mounted on the
  car.
