    Brian, I agree although I am one of those guys that has bought used vfds with no problems but you do have to get the better stuff. The PP people are pretty adamant that their system does not produce the same " chopped up" -my non technical term- waves the a vfd does. Don't know the real deal but my machines seem to run stronger than on my Kay. All pretty subjective though. If you find a good used PP in the $1500 range it is worth the risk as the company is very good about repairs if needed. Mine have been fine an the quiet is nice. Dave

    Brian,

    Thanks for putting in the info about the VFD. I looked on their website and might be missing it but I see the input for single phase but it does not show the output in three phase. Do they make a drive with single phase input for a 5hp three phase output?

    The V1000 is the series, the model numbers fluctuate based on the size.

    Looking great! I have seen a lot of BS restorations on the net and end the wild and yours is probably the most thorough I have seen!
    Of all the laws Brandolini's may be the most universally true.

    Deep thought for the day:

    Your bandsaw weighs more when you leave the spring compressed instead of relieving the tension.
