Hi,
Some advice from the cleaver people please I have a AlG 50 G metal lathe (9X20) purchased from Hercus at least 25 years ago, apart from a few (China cut cost) things it has served me well and still will unless I win the lottery
The one thing thing thing is really a PITA is every time I need to change speed I have faff around with belts and gears etc.
Is there any reason why I could not replace the motor with a 3ph unit (larger hp ) and a VFD
