Traded XX Plasma/Polished Project

I think if anyone is going to try and fix the caved in areas around the pins on the nose bridge definitely use a mapp gas torch. I work with titanium all the time making knives and getting it red hot will definitely help eliminate any cracking while flattening out those areas. Titanium will not quench harden the way steel does but it will slightly work harden if the material is stressed while cold.

I work with titanium daily, that is not going to be an easy repair, if it's even possible to repair. That being said, I think you should price that XX with the expectation of it needing a new nose bridge, not $400. How much do nose bridges sell for, on the rare occasion they show up for sale?
Just my two Pennies...

Yup. I’d be a buyer at a price that considers this needs some major nose work

I appreciate all your comments, to be honest I’m asking what I paid for it plus shipping (around $40), fees and I’m not even sure I’ll get it with paypal crappy currency converter. I’ll see if someone is willing to take the risk such as I did, if not I’ll probably keep it and fix it later in the year
