 This is a repair guide that is physical, and is not guaranteed to fix your dent(s) fully. I was not 100% successful, but I am okay with moderate blemishes on my units. If this dent damages the internals, that is a whole //other// repair guide.

   * **Dented MD unit**; this guide will mostly focus on //metal// MD unit casing, though could work for plastic, again YMMV
-  * Some kind of **buffer/medium** to actually hammer upon. You don't want to damage the casing, so you sandwich it between two pieces of wood, in my case (from another project test). You'll probably want it to be larger than the area of the dent, and properly sized for your application.

You'll probably want it to be larger than the area of the dent, and properly sized for your application. This can be thick cardboard or wood.
   * Depending on the size of the medium and the dented part, you might find it useful to have some kind of **clamp** to hold it all together (and possibly save your fingers). There are plenty of options from the simple metal clamp shown, to wood sliding clamps.
   * **Screwdriver and appropriate bit(s)** to remove the casing piece, and any electronics that may be attached
