Thanks much Bill, the link helps a lot.
Thanks Lisa...Gave McMaster-Carr a look and think I'll order from them first.
Thanks, I read up on capacitor motors. I guess 3450 it is until I find a slower motor.
You're absolutely right. But there is little fun in that. This piece of rail is about 40" long and 6" or 7" high. Weighs a freaking ton. Big guy at the antique store picked it up and loaded it in...
I think the bandsaw would work best myself...Just can't justify buying one for this project....yet....I'm going to try abrasive then OA if needed first. I've seen some 10" carbide cutoff disks that...
Sure have David and that is a backup method for me to try. I'm thinking a blade would be cleaner, not that it matters that much. I'm planning on making an anvil with the cutoff and it will take a...

Do you...
I have several buffer and grinding motors and all run in the 3450rpm range. Does anyone know if I run a 3450 motor through a variac at around 50% power will that work to reduce the rpms? Will it...
I bought an Eastwood 1/2hp, 8", 3450rpm buffer motor. I've read quite a bit on buffer wheels.
I figure I'll need a spiral woven, a loose and maybe a felt. I plan on using them for many things...
Thanks to all. I got some good info here. I'm probably filling a want as much as need but I'll focus on condition and price instead of style. Thanks again.
Great observation - I think it is a want but I do intend using on the tops of some new shop benches I intend to build.
Noob question. Smooth vs Corrugated. Do I care? I don't really understand the difference. I'm guessing the corrugated channel debris? I've collected a number of "User" planes from #3-#6. I'm...
