I got a build kit for raspberry pi from china, and the 3d printed case it came with was warped due to heat inside the package being in sunlight probably. Can I fix it with hot water or a hairdryer?

Just stop and re-read what you have typed.
> Part got bent because of heat.
> Can I use heat to bend part?
No anon, you'll end up making mustard gas.
This, you need to cool it down to reverse the damage. A few days in the freezer might be good, don't overdue it or it might go back to filament.
>from china
serves you right for buying chinese garbage
I was the only place to get one
do you not know about Amazon or the other 1000 site that sells the kits?
The one I wanted wasn't available in other places, had to order from aliexpress. Us amazon had a couple but didn't ship here.
oh well. let's hope you lucked out and managed to find the 0.1% of ali sellers who doesn't sell garbage.
Doesn't seem like I lucked out when shit's wonky as hell. Probably gives cancer too.
What the frick happened to the prices? I bought mine years ago for 30€ how the frick is this shit so expensive? Shoulda invested in this shit instead of shitcoins.
I guess at this point I could trade my pi with its 3mm thick stainless steel case for a fricking car.
>Shoulda invested in this shit instead of shitcoins.
That's... why the price is high.
Chip shortage started it, scalpers keep it going. Someday it'll lose it's scarcity and scalpers will have a beanie baby load of raspberry pi's in their garage. Right next to the pallets of .22 ammo.
>Can I fix it with hot water or a hairdryer?
Yeah but it will always look like crap. Just buy a real plastic case on ebay or amazon for like $10 and don't worry about it. 3D printed stuff looks like shit anyway.
