Yes, but JohnA wanted to go to single phase from 3phase...

I on the other hand am looking for a cheap 1hp/0.75kw 3phase for my mill... :whistling:

Of course, he already has the 3 phase motor Duh, well it is getting late and the pop is taking effect.

Can't help with the 0.75Kw, just had to buy 8 new ones.

Sorry 6 new ones, God this 2009 Asda scrumpy must have been a good year.

Is your lathe cnc and therfore the spindle speed is controlled by the main controler? If not then most people seem the favour the 3 phase motor anyway and just get a VFD. (varible freqency drive)

I got one off the bay for £50 ish. That way you can have varible speed but still have full power. Irving and John S helped me a lot on this. may be ask them, or wait and see if they chip in...:whistling:

Might be worth starting a new thread as more people will see it then.
