Minimax have a reputation for quality machines and the Genius range seemed to offer an excellent quality-price ratio. Three things put me off though. First was that it seems quite lightweight at 140kg (compared to ~210kg for the Holzprofi DR310). Would be interested to hear your take on how solid the build is. Second was that someone at Scott & Sargeant told me that they had decided to stop selling the single phase Minimax PTs due to motor-related issues. Third was that I would have had to take responsibility for arranging all the transportation required from Europe to French Guiana and I much preferred to deal with a company who would take care of this (and who I knew would continue to provide me with after sales support in case of problems arising in transport or use). When we move from here in 2-3 years time I may decide to sell rather than transport my machines. If I do then I'll need to buy again when I set up my next workshop. Would be great to hear your take on the Minimax FS30-G once you've got it up and running.</blockquote>
