[QUOTE="Rustystud, post: 1060429, member: 9964"] I would rather have a lathe with 3 phase motor. Three phase is no trouble with a Variable Frequency Drive. They cost roughly $125.00 per horse power of the motor. My lathe was bought with a single phase motor. The NEMA Metric Three phase motor with the same footprint and sheeve shaft size was a 7 1/2 hp motor. It has been running for 10 years now with no looking back. Nat Lambeth [/QUOTE]
