| It's pretty banged up/bent and someone drilled a hole in the middle of it. |
 |
| Using this small ball peen hammer, straightened out the plate so that it's pretty close to the original shape. The key is to move the very thin metal very slowly back into shape by making many small hits in very strategic spots, from both side of the plate. It's not perfect but it's pretty close to it's original shape. Still needs cleaning and a little bit of touch-up... |
