I FOUND OUR MOTOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It's HGR's ONLY 2 HP single phase AC motor, and it's been reduced in price to only $35!  It will need a wheel, but the shaft is keyed!  Considering that they're only open from 8-5, do you cats want me to snatch this one up for us?

down from $50

I don't know the shaft or sheave size. 

Dave says: "Theoretically we could use a 3450rpm motor with a pulley 1/2 the size, but the shorter contact surface makes belt slippage an issue. Then the tighter bend radius and additional tension create other problems.  "

I might wait until after our meeting tomorrow before considering buying the single phase motor.
