So i got my new toy for £320 and it arrived with a loose

So i got my new toy for £320 and it arrived with a loose and buckled table inside. Seller is offering me £30 to repair it myself (i asked for 160 due to having to take all the internals out and re assemble and setup)

Do i just ask for a new one or take the 30 and fix it, knowing i will have to do lots of work on it in future anyway?

Also the sprung table doesnt open far, is there a common replacement for the table and how is the laser calibrated to the table?

Thanks
David

take the all x/y assembly out, remove the bed and make yourself a new one with honeycomb (at focal point hight). Most important is check your x/y assembly is square, and parrallel with tube when refit.

Enjoy ! welcome here @David_Rowlinson by the way.

Hey buddy. You’re going to have to remove the bed and carriage anyway to check for alignment and squareness so I’d say take the £30 and buy a honeycomb bed. Just check the tube and any other major components aren’t damaged as £30 won’t cover them

Hey guys thanks, ive taken the £30. Dragged out an old PC and have set everything up but not fully tested yet.
Is there a guide for laser/mirror alignment and checking correct focal point for table height?
