Keggle Repair

[winstonofbeer]

So i got this soon to be keggle with a problem, It underside of it is bent almost the entire way around.

What is the best way to straighten it back out?

Just to clarify, It is the rim part, No the sides.

Thanks for your help.

I used a pipe wrench to grab the side and a large mallet to smack the pipe wrench. It took some of the bends out. Definitely not perfect, but it helped. You could also use a long "cheater" bar on the end of the pipe wrench for a more controlled bend, but would probably need two people or some way to hold the keg.

Hmm This looks like this is not going to be a fun 1 person job....

Chain the keg to an immovable object with the bent rim side facing you and then use a big pipe wrench and cheater bar.

Be sure to be careful in case anything slips or breaks.
