Beantown poles on the Bimini top

rasbury

I had an unfortunate backing up incident while trailering our 270. It was rolled up but the frame got a pretty good bend to it. One side has a bow to it that I think will bend back. This is some HD tubing but if I use a length of thick wall pvc and get it wedged up under something...other side won't be as "clean" as it has a crimp and will have to see...heat it up? How hot? And how to I tell how hot it is??
