I've talked to numerous people at LHS online, and they say the HONEYBEE FP is built like a tank; parts are really cheap, and they are a very stable platform; very good for learning. I even had one recommend it and He doesn't even carry it ! !

I'm not trying to pour salt into Your wound, but I'm sure You could unload it here, take the small loss and try it; or put it away, purchase another one more suitable, then come back when You are better.
