Getting dents out of pipe.
My driveshaft left three of these beauties behind as it made it's departure. Probably no power hit, but it seems to sound a bit different. Might just be my imagination. I could cut the pipe down, cap the ends, and freeze water in it like you would a two stroke expansion chamber. Weld it back together later in my fabrication class. I don't think pulling on an attached stick welding rod would work (Herculean force required). Any other ideas on what I could do?

maybe rig up some sort of slide hammer. tack a long welding rod on with a sliding weight(the head of a hammer without the handle) and some sort of plate on the end that when struck would Pull up on the dent.
