That's a pretty good price. The last one that I got off of e-bay was a price similar to that. Just ensure that the motor's h/p corresponds to the VFD's rated h/p. I bought them together as a set but the motor turned out to be 3 h/p and the VFD was a 2 h/p. I got an expert in here and he had a fit as the motor kept on hunting and wouldn't run at an even rpm. First he brought in a top of the line 800.00 Emerson motor that was to large to even fit on my machine but it still kept hunting even just setting on the floor. That's when he started looking at the numbers and found that the VFD and motors weren't matched so he got me a 2 h/p motor and all was well again.

Thanks Dick.
That was a quote for the two pieces as matching units.
I'll get the belt and bushing at mcm.
Couple these, a lathe and two hundred shaft dowels, I'm broke again. :eek:

And the cycle continues, make money buy equipment, make money buy wood. Not anyones fault you chose building cues over something cheaper and less addicting like Crack.
