Hi,  I just received my new T-7.  Inside the shipping carton was a heavily damaged Tormek T-7 box.  There is much wobble in the honing wheel, left to right.  If I take the honing wheel off, there is no wobble to speak of in the friction wheel.  Also, there is some wobble in the grindstone both left to right and up and down.  With the grindstone removed, there is movement up and down in the main shaft.  This movement is exaggerated at the circumference of the stone.  On the grinding surface, first one side is high then the other.  I think this can be corrected by dressing the stone, which will have to be repeated each time I remove the stone, or if it comes loose.  The side to side wobble of the grindstone I'm not sure about. ???  Is this standard, acceptable and correctable, or should I send it back for replacement?    Any suggestions or comments ???.
