It does look like it! No it was listed like that on eBay and thankfully the seller made no attempt to hide it. I knew I could flatten it and got it for a very good price :)

I suppose cheap bent/warped MOCs from eBay will be a thing of the past now!

Fantastic results, Edd! I've a couple I should try this on. Nothing nearly as bad as your LXW, but worth doing I think.

Good luck my friend. Take it slowly doing a little at first and see the results and if needs be then try it again for a little longer. That's what I did but depending how warped/bent your MOC is. :)
