Have not checked back here for a couple of days.  I'll try to get a pic in the morning.  It's  a "chip" from the plastic housing covering a part of the motor.

Hi All,

Glad I found this site.  My new T7 arrived yesterday and while unpacking it, a small chip of broken plastic fell out of the unit.  Turns out, it's a small piece about the size of a quarter broken off of the plastic housing located right behind the grinding wheel.  Nothing I think that will affect performance and not a big enough problem to return the unit I hope.  If I were to ask for a new part sent from Tormek, I am not sure I would be able to get in there to replace it.

My main question is this:  While looking for the broken area I noticed that the whole motor is slightly "loose" or has a small amount of back and forth movement when pressing with my hand.  Is this normal for these units?  Anything I need to worry about? 

Regards,
David
