10" Table Saw Woodwise, Help

[uk woodman]

Just bought a Woodwise 10" Table Saw (£180 from ebay) its three phase 2.5 HP motor, I'm going to convert it to single phase, anyone got any ideas on the quality of it or Ideas what motor an how to do it? I do have my own ideas (but somewhat sketchy) any comments or Ideas greatly received

Regards Tim

What a find, looks great quality wise, nice cast iron and double bells and whistles, she should do you proud.
I bought a 3 phase extractor with the same idea, but in the end the easy option was just to get a single phase motor made for it, but I am sure there will be somebody here that can help you out with that.

That's just what I was thinking of doing, you can get a 3hp induction motor for £130ish
