Yesterday's delivery brought a bent heatsink.? I didn't want to throw out something that was still usable or use it so mangled so I did what we do.? I drew and printed 2 combs in a few minutes to try to fix it in two steps.? I might try another round with tighter tolerances but I can live with this.? I did not take pictures along the way but this should explain...
?
tap the first comb down into the fins before the damage.? using a wood block (or you could print something) so you don't do more damage, drive the comb all the out the damaged end.? repeat with the second comb.

Happy to share stl's if anyone cares.?
This is the heatsink ? I bought the 150mm variation that will eventually go on a K9HZ 20w PA.
