I think the way you mentioned would work OK........however, it's just my opinion, but why put yourself through all of that, running a high risk of goofing something up, when you can simply weld up your low carbon/L-6 billet, cut it in half and then place the O-1 between the two?
Either way will work, it's just a matter of personal preference as to how you want to arrive at your desired destination.
