Oh damn. Sadly have to share that I officially joined the cracked chassis club.

Gray FW12, batch 1. One cracked edge so far. If it sits in front of me it’s the front (where the lid opens) right bottom screw.

Very hard to see, but if you know what to look for easy to spot. Definitely can be felt with fingerrnails.
