My partner has been trying to remove this to replace it with a new one. There’s some piece in the bottom that is preventing him from just pulling it up. So he’s been attempting to bend it and push it through. He’s been at it for 2 hours.

Please help he’s getting impatient and if he breaks the whole sink I won’t even be mad, just disappointed.

I’ve distracted him with an errand.

He has tin cutters but it won’t cut it thru. Just some ideas on what I can suggest he do before he just starts taking a hammer to it and breaks the porcelain sink? He’s so close he just can’t get it to bend anymore. I brought up the obvious point of “well they got it in there somehow, so u shud b able to undo it” but he just says “I got it I got it”. :)
