how the fuck did it get all those tiny little nicks and scratches??
I have had mine for a couple years now and it still looks brand new.......
I'm not sure how it got the scratchs and nicks. This is a co-workers machine, she is normaly very gental with things and takes care of things very well. I would be suprised if she dropped it or abused it in any way.
Anyway, I was hopping that someone might have some fixing advice. If something like JB plastic weld would worked. Seems like there are enough handy people on here that someone would have a fix or trick.
I know to well how a little porsity can cause big problems. It is one of them things that is unavoidable but hopefully the bubbles form where strength isn't important.
For me I have no problem sending things in for repair but for her it is her main $ maker. She doesn't have a pile of extra machines to pull out and run with. 2 weeks and the shiping would be a hardship for her.
Anyway, she did solve the problem by swaping the fraim with one that the motor had died.
