Hello everybody. I'm totally new here. I'm a retired Toolmaker after 46 years. I have an older 1948 Bridgeport mill, frame number 9648 SA. It has the original 1/2hp motor on it, (motor number Y 766055), but it appears that one of the windings is bad. I'm planning to upgrade the mill with a 3hp DC motor but I'm wondering what to do with the original motor. Is there anybody that would rebuild it? I'm sure that would be expensive at the least but I'm just wondering what to try to do with the old motor. Any suggestions?
Thanks.
Thanks.
