Hi,
align the block as well as you can in its corresponding size mold and place in
a 37C oven for about 30 minutes to an hour.
This will soften the block enough that you can use a straight edge to gently
realign the warped side.
You may need to repeat a couple of times to not force it.

Good afternoon Histonet!
Does anyone have any experience repairing a precious TMA block that was damaged
by heat? Part of the block is okay but half was exposed to heat and experienced
some melting which misaligned some cores and has the block on a slant. We know
that this has probably happened to someone else with all the bad storage
practices of the past and damage to blocks in the mail.
Thanks in advance for any advice you have!
Best,
Kristyn
