i recently aquired a big old pillar drill. (will post a pick when i get a chance)
it wasent running when i got it, so re-wired it and fitted a new cap. in short, its now running.
the motor is only rated at 1/2 hp and easily stalled when trying to drill a 38mm hole into 2mm steel. it also wont turn when i arrange the belts to get the maximum speed.
can anyone please reccomend a more powerfull and suitable single phase motor.
