[DMCForum] Re: Frame damage, can it be fixed



The tech high school I graduated from has a fixture for straightening bent
frames.  It's a big hydraulic mess that latches on and pulls.  There may
be
such a school in your area that you can sign up for adult night classes
(cheap!).  With the shop teacher's help & supervision you get use of all
that cool stuff.

My main concern with bent frames is that once it has been bent then it is
about impossible to totally erase the damage.  I'm not sure that it would
resist yielding as well if it were hit a second time.  I suppose that
heating any repaired area until it glowed and then let it slowly cool
would
help remove any stresses or fatigue in the metal, but then I'm just a
dummy
on the subject.
