I just purchased/received an inexpensive Woodpeckers drill press table from Grizzly. http://www.grizzly.com/products/Dril...s-Table/T26932

The table is MDF (or something similar) covered in a laminate. Using the included aluminum fence as a straight edge, the table is warped down from the edges toward the center the thickness of 9 sheets of paper (all I have handy to measure). The warp is easily visible without measurement. The table was shipped vertically and it is really humid in Houston this week.

Will the table settle if I keep it on a flat granite countertop for a while, or should I request a new one?

My expectation always was that eventually I need to build something more substantial, like a torsion box top, but I wanted something quick and easy to use with a new G7943 bench top drill press due to arrive today.

Cheers,
