    Is there a fabrications/sheet metal shop (by shop I mean workplace not shopping shop) in your area. Any sheet metal worker worth his salt could repair that for you for the price of a couple of pints.

    Failing that you could give it a go yourself. Rubber mallet and a piece of rubber underneath.

    There doesn't seem to be any creasing to the metal.

    The one place you would have to concentrate on is the lip to ensure you keep it uniform.
    [SIZE=-1]To equate judgement and wisdom with occupation is at best . . . insulting.

    There is no way that sink is ever going to be repaired to a satisfactory condition, move on, forget it.;)
