I have a line on an old red Minimax S45 for $350 and wondered if anyone could give me any pointers to watch out for when I pick it up. It has the Seimec 1.1kw motor and appears in fairly good condition. I will be able to see it running.
I have done some reading on these and it seems that for hobbyist work without too much resawing, it should be a good fit for me.
Any thoughts before I commit to this? Thanks very much.
