Hi I have thought about changing out the motor but it’s an 8hp motor and apparently they are hard to come by and expensive so if I have to spend £500 or more might as well just get some sort of 3 phase sorted then if more 3 phase kit comes up eg dust extraction,surface planers etc I will be able to run them as well .
-
Hi guys ,so the converter Eggsy was trying to get me turned out to be F###ed so I am still looking for a 3 phase converter or generator if any of you come across anything please let me know Thanks Mark

Hi I have checked with my sparky who revamped our electrics in the workshop and he reckons we are fine as we have 2 , 32 amp scockets one for the welder and another for my girlfriends stained glass kiln but we wouldn’t be able to use them all at the same time
