*Grinding on the lid / Case isn’t square
The case is out of square and the lid doesn’t close unless I torque the body of the case while closing
Video of the case issues.
*Cracked Case
Corner looks like it is cracked, which isn’t a cosmetic issue, a crack is a structural / safety issue, I don’t want any errant beams having a path out.
I think that was two people who have had the bent pins, no? I think the factory needs to be reminded to unplug that thing carefully after testing/calibration.
That’s a heavy dose of problems. I will say one thing about the case and lid alignment: it’s not very rigid, so it’s quite sensitive to being on an uneven surface. When I first got mine, the lid on the right side appeared to be way higher than the case, but I discovered later that if I picked up the right side of the case, it would come into alignment with the lid. I put some shims under it until it was level. Now I have a more rigid table underneath and the lid height is perfectly lined up with the front on both sides. It still has a significant bow in it, but that’s as they say a known issue and it has mostly become a non-issue for me. I do wish it closed more meaningfully and maybe even had some rubber seals, since I have become obsessive about ventilation.
Anyway, yours looks terrible so that’s probably not the issue (and even if it is, it’s not the only one) but I figured I’d mention it as something to check.
