And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.

That must be quite difficult. A little while back I was trying to bend back a little curl in my car’s hood and I was wailing (“whaling”?) on it with a sledge hammer and it resisted a lot better than I expected. ( It’s an aluminum hood! I thought aluminum was supposed to be more malleable!) I t m u s t t a k e a l o t o f force to b e nd all that steel back. So what are you doing, beating on the other end of that 4x4 with the sledge hammer to raise the bent-down part?
I s a w y o u r p i c t u r e s f r o m t o d a y . T h a t ’ s c o o l t h a t t h e “ C o r v a i r ” e m b l e m i s s t i l l i n t a c t . H ow did you straighten the hood w i t h o u t b r e a k i n g i t ?

put it on my deck and stomped on it. In a precise and tech nical manner with precise work boots. It needs more work, wasn’t planning on us ing the hood, but I do enjoy a challenge.

Aluminum has no “memory” so to speak. So when it’s bent, that’s the new shape of the hood. when a steel panel is damaged it “wants” to go back the way it was, if reverse-violenced in the correct order. this car has been wrecked in the same place before, so i got out the fixing log, not worried about making more work for myself.

Stupid question, but would it help to heat the metal first with a blowtorch?

not at this stage. I might need to use oxy-acetelene to shrink out some of the damage from bashing it out though.

I suppose to get it to bend easier, it’d take a ton of heat.
