Re: Free Bridgeport Style Knee Mill (SF Bay Area)

I just got a 2hp rated single phase input variable frequency drive for my mill. The VFD is new from China, and cost $106 including postage. And it works, I can run my 3 phase mill on single phase power, plus I can adjust the speed with a potentiometer.

So don't let the 3 phase thing prevent you from getting the mill....as long as you have 220v service you should be able to get it working.
