				<title>Repairing bent metal minis?</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ So.. I've finally got my hands on a good librarian model to kit out as an epistolary for my 'nilla <span class="glossaryitem" onmouseover='gp(119);'>SM</span> army.<br /> <br /> Unfortunately, his staff is bent. Downright crooked, in fact.<br /> <br /> <br /> I'm aware that you can repair pewter (which I'm assuming it is) without fatiguing it by heating it in boiling water; however, the methods I'm familiar with are intended for objects on the scale of cups and bowls. I'm afraid I might smudge other details on the model while straightening the damaged segment.<br /> <br /> Has anyone else dealt with problems of this sort, and can you offer any suggestions?]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ If it is metal you can simply bend it back but it sounds like you have a resin model.  If it is resin then just run it under hot tap water for a short amount of time and it should let you bend it back in place. I actually had to do this for my Libby for my Blood Angels.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ It's not resin. It's metal. Resin isn't dense, hard, and naturally metallic silver. : P<br /> <br /> Bending it back may work, but it would also fatigue the metal. I want to use this piece on the tabletop, and I'm afraid that a weakened area might deform again due to handling after being painted.]]></description>

				<description><![CDATA[ Hmmm  yeah it is possible then that it may just get weaker.  I have had a handful of metal minis with similar issues and I was able to bend it back without any weakness problems. <br /> <br /> Maybe a pic to see how bad it is would help.   If not I am not sure I can be of much help. sorry  <img src="/s/i/a/dec8d79950a36218cfae9200a43fa59f.gif" border="0"> ]]></description>
