Need help and guidance

Hello

I recently bought a new toolbox. Upon delivery, I noticed the side was bent. Any tips on flattening or straightening it out?

Use non-serrated jawed T+G pliers (biggest possible!)

Great excuse to by some Knipex Pliers Wrench -https://www.amazon.com/Knipex-8603250-10-Inch-Pliers-Wrench/dp/B000X4OG94/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1515092620&sr=8-2&keywords=knipex+pliers+wrench

Body hammer would be the best imo but any hammer with light taps will coax the side back in. Start st the bottom and work to top. If you want it pretty use a piece of wood between the hammer and metal.

Contact supplier first and send pictures. You may get a replacement or a Discount for keeping that one.

Already did that... I got a few hundred bucks off. Thanks for the suggestion though!
