i would try a heat gun to see if you can get it to go back to where it should be.if you have another body thats even close to that one put your taipan body over the other one and use a heat gun to warm the body and apply pressure and heat slowly and evenly and it might go back to almost where it should be. or hit it with a sledgehammer and buy a new one lol.

Wow, haha... that's really too bad. It almost NEVER gets over 90 where I live and if it does it's like 91 for a day or two and that's it. I'd die in that kind of weather...

It was a beautiful high 60s day here yesterday - perfect shorts weather!

Or you could pour lighter fluid all over it, light it on fire and race by your camera while you take a pic for the contest. "So fast, it's on fire!" It may be worth a $20 body to win the $200 tool set. Just be sure to get the pic fast and douse the fire before things go awry!
