I just bought this mill used on Craigslist and I forgot to start up the manual 3rd phase motor and smoked the mill motor. It looks like the motor had already been replaced once with a motor off an old bridgport. From the research I have done it looks like I either have to have the motor rewound or purchase one from H&W machine with an adapter plate and have them modify the pulley to fit the 7/8" shaft. I found this 1 1/2 hp motor on ebay with a 3/4" long keyed shaft and was wondering if I could build an adapter plate and use it as is. Anyone have any idea if this will work? Thanks in advance
