Series 1J powerfeed question

[gregg877]

Hi all,

I’ve got a 1j with a 48” table and the original powerfeed that I’d rescued from a cam shop. The powerfeed motor is burned out and I’d considered upgrading it, but because of the long table I’m limited to some of the older units. I can get the motor respun, but don’t want to run additional 3 phase wiring for it. Would it be possible to have the motor re-spun for single phase, or can someone recommend a newer ( and preferably affordable) powerfeed for this machine?

Thanks,
Gregg

I picked up a used $300 8F for my machine and couldn't be happier. I too have the 48-inch table and wouldn't think of all the cranking I've saved.
