Hello Gene. I know what the problem is here. I sent you home with some
Butternut wood that was to large for the saw you had there so the
project you had in mind for the wood got size creep.
I wasn't looking that gift horse in the mouth, nosiree bub. :)

My first choice would be a rotary phase converter if you don't have
three phase.
I built one once, I would never consider doing it again. eBay is full
of solid-state 3-phase converters that do a better job, in less space,
with less fuss.

Gene,
We built a rotary phase converter from a salvage 10hp 3 phase motor and a few
bits. If you
have a motor repair shop nearby sometimes they have used motors with damaged
shafts
and the like that you can pick up for $25 - $75 I missed part of the chat
on this but if it is
3hp or less
I have two RPC, homebuilt. Push button start, and the capacitors live in
the machine cabinets. Pretty simple really.

Greetings all;
I find I am in need of a bandsaw with at least 12.5 of resaw capability, and
I'm reluctant to buy a Rikon 10-325 to get it as that will be circa a kilobuck
by the time I fit it with a WoodSlicer blade, a mitre gauge, a pack of table
inserts pay the freight.
The only real
I put my 20 inch Oliver on a VFD and absolutely love it!
Single phase in, and three phase out with variable speed. It's a direct
drive 860 RPM motor, so it runs smooth and quiet!
So Sweet.

Get a 3Phase VFD and as long as you have 220 single phase you will be
ok. I run a 16Inch resaw with a 3HP motor that way.
Good luck!

Those guy's are in the neighborhood and have good prices and service:

Regarding VFD's
A poly phase input unit may be used even if single phase is the only power
avilable. The VFD must be sized a bit (1.5 -2 X) to accommodate the
current through the DC rectifiers.
The units I have (a Toshiba and two Siemens) all came by way of E-bay (New
in box) and cost less than

I am not quite sure of the math but you also might consider a 240V
in VFD drive to convert it to 3 phase. This is recommended many times
as almost a break even choice when replacing large single phase motors
for mills and lathes as a 3 phase motor is enough cheaper that it plus
