On Thu, 6 Mar 2008 21:37:38 -0000, "Doki" had this
to say:

I dropped an aluminium pan on the floor the other day. Despite being made of
3 or 4mm thick alloy, it's now got a flatspot on the rim (The rims' not
flanged like a normal pan, which why it probably bent so easily). It's also
teflon coated, so getting really abusive with it isn't going to work well.
Has anyone got any ideas on how to straigten it out so I can get the lid on
it again? Other than dent the lid to fit .

Obviously you didn't do proper metalwork at school!

You need a sandbag and a bossing mallet...
