Pultra 1750 Clockmakers Lathe MOTOR UPGRADE

Upgrading my trust old Pultra 1750 by fitting it with a new, 3 phase motor and inverter set-up from Power Capacitors.

I have always fancied improving the motor set-up on this lathe, and when the old single phase motor started to pack up I was confronted with the perfect opportunity.

This video is NOT sponsored, and I paid full price for my set-up, however I would like to recommend Transwave/Power Capacitors if you would like a similar set-up. I have used them for all my machines, including my rotary phase converter, and both their products and service have been excellent every time. https://transwave.co.uk/Packages
