The situation, per my husband:

We have a mid 70s contractor grade Craftsman 12 inch table saw.
The motor recently died. 
I've taken it to a motor repair shop and the windings are cooked and getting them rewound is nowhere near practical/affordable.

The old motor was not a belt drive (has an arbor for direct drive ) is 1 hp 230/240 volt. Attached are photos showing the motor specs and a side view.  The side view shows the four holes where it is bolted to the carriage

So far, I've not found anything that would constitute a direct replacement. 
I've expanded my search to include old delta motors as they may or may not have built my table saw for Craftsman. If anyone has suggestions on where to look or what other alternatives to check out, it would be greatly appreciated!


Thanks!
Angela (& Dave)
