    Will you be able to eliminate that huge box on the side that housed the three-phase motor? You will need a different magnetic starter switch, but many places sell those inexpensively.

    Grizzly sells them at reasonable prices. Got mine from them.

    you better be real careful... I've been in love with the '66 saw ever since I saw one at a wood show with the table off, right along side a Delta with the table off.

    I understand they don't do that any more... Something about "unfair competion".

    No comparison. The '66 saw is a battleship.

    Better be REAL careful not to let me know where it is. You might just loose it some dark night... (envy envy envy envy...)

    Thanks guys
    I ordered a switch from Grizzly.
    I'm waiting on the motor, once it is mounted I am going to see if I can shallow up the cover
