Does anyone have any ideas on how to bend an AD hinge?
I have a large pipe wrench but my vice is not anchored strong enough to pull that hard on.
I know how, but the where is hard to tell without seeing it. I heated mine up with a torch til it glowed where I needed it to bend then used 2 large crescent wrenches to bend.
