Hello,
I am looking to replace the GE motor that came with my old South Bend Lathe. It is a single-phase, 3.8 amp, 115 volt motor at a 1/4 HP w/ a capacitor. I would like to upgrade to 1/2 HP. I am using form cutters to cut into the tailstock side of the workpiece... I think a 1/2 HP should be enough but if anyone has any opinions I'd like to hear them. Does anyone have suggestions on a new motor?
