    I definitely would not rule out a vintage machine. Even 3 phase is easily handled with a VFD. My criteria on a vintage machine would be condition, ball bearings and a belt drive. From everything I've...

    If you find one but it doesn't have the correct mounting base, i.e. the holes don't line up, you can buy adapters for that purpose. Or make your own out of BB plywood. I've done both with good...
