The top is probably bowed - the top on my M2 is slightlybowed - I suspect that shrinkage of the formica at a greater rate that the plywood pulls the plywood into the bowed position. Wish there was something to 'relax' it, but I hesitate to experiment.

Is it the photo or does that top looked really bowed?
