Cincinatti No2

[fredstraw1]

Hello all, new member here. I am a JM Machinist looking to set up a Cincinatti No2 in my garage. The power source I have available is single phase 240V. I was wondering if anyone has converted one of these to drive off a motor that uses this power source? ( the tools I have run in the past were 3phase ). Also, any leads on where I can find one for sale that is in operational condition would be greatly appreciated. I am located on Vancouver Island BC Canada.

Leeson makes a VFD (variable frequensy drive) that runz 3 faze motorz with regular 240v home power. Az a bonus, you get speed control.
