Several days ago unpacked the Saba that a had arrived a couple of days before.

Unfortunately it has obviously had a bad knock during shipping. The lid was off and the Take Up Reel Table top hub was lying in the box. The right hand metal spigot in the lid (spool retainer I assume) is badly bent and partially has pushed up through the lid.

Fitting the lid on, it is seriously misaligned with the unit. The right hand side of the chassis has a noticeable gap to the case surround metalwork, where I think the metalwork has been pushed downwards.

Also a few other minor knocks.

So more work than I anticipated, most of it metal straightening, hopefully the Take Up Reel Table will be OK after the top hub is refitted.
