That does not seem normal at all.  My K1 front panel does not
flex as the flat-head front panel mounting screw is tightened,
however much I try.

Are you sure that the front panel stand-off (to which the flat-head
screw will attach) was mounted to the front panel PCB with *two* #4
lock-washers below it, as described and illustrated on page 20 of
the K1 manual?
