After mixing up Jim's expertise and a special tool Ron Herbert made by bending one of his screwdrivers, this is how it looked a little later. Ron's tool was used to remove the insulation from behind the fractured fiberglass and then a patch of new fiberglass was added to the back side of the fractured area for strength after small clamps aligned the edges. Note the damage to the top right corner of the aluminum vent duct.
