Hello, fine people. I’ve come across an old mid-2011 iMac 27” computer that has everything working (it is getting an SSD). However, the aluminum housing of the main body has some dents that would require fixing. But before I do that, does anyone have experience or know-how to advise me how to...

Hello, all. First off, I want to say how helpful this site and the forums have been to me. I've gotten lots of answers from here for a long time. Very helpful and insightful people. Ok, so I have a rig I built myself a few years ago. I'm no expert, but have enough knowledge to follow...
