How he was able to do this from inside the frame tubing is left as an exercise for the believers. There is also SMA (shape memory alloy): <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shape-memory_alloy> which can be deformed when cold but returns to its previous shape when heated, which Tom does with a breath of hot air. I really wish that Tom would introduce his amazing technology to the automobile industry. My Subaru has numerous dents from trees and branches falling on it during several years of winter storms. It would be really nice if I could just push or heat the dent and have it return to its original shape. -- Jeff Liebermann jeffl@cruzio.com PO Box 272 http://www.LearnByDestroying.com Ben Lomond CA 95005-0272 Skype: JeffLiebermann AE6KS 831-336-2558
