Lets assume that the 5 hp Powermatic 2700 is $3000 and add $1000 for a feeder.
I have a rotary phase converter unit that runs 45 hp and no motor to exceed 15 hp.
There have been a lot of auctions of industrial cabinetshops around here lately.
The Powermatic seems to be limited to a 5 inch cutter. Would I be better off with a commercial unit in the 7 1/2 to 10 hp size for comparable or less dollars.
Since I do not height restrictions I was thinking the same about used bandsaws.
Thanks for looking.
