I just found this bent lead toy soldier and was wondering if there is a way to straighten it without it breaking? Any body out there tried it before?

Propane torch, very slowly[/QU

Well I didn't have a propane torch but I did have a industrial blow dryer and decided to try that, heated it up bent it a little heated it up again and bent a little more till I got to this stage and decided it was close enough.

Amazing job. I would have thought it wasn't possible. You ever thought of being a chiropractic practitioner?
