Remove small dents from brass exhaust tube

[lauson73]

I have a brass exhaust tube on the motor I am restoring and it has some small dents I would like to remove. It has two different sized ends and they have a small crimp on ends. I tried to use a ball bearing and was going to force threw but the crimp on end prevented that unless I wanted to flare end and I don’t want to do that.
Any suggestions on how to remove dents.

Youtube any video about taking dents out of musical instruments…

Amazing how they do it,

If there aren’t any creases a soft hammer will
take the dents out. A solid rod may be a better
choice than a pipe for what your doing. You may
have to grind down part of the rod to get around
the crimp or if you do use a pipe cut a part of it
out.
