	Spending more time in the garage means that my rather aged drill press has fried the motor. Looking for a replacement and am thinking of either the 1/2hp or 3/4hp ones from Machine Mart. www.machinemart.co.uk/p/1-2inhp-single-phase-4-pole-motor/#reviewsBox Reviews look good but has anybody here used them or, indeed, got any other suggestions? Thanks, P.

	www.ebay.co.uk/itm/0-18KW-3-7KW-2-POLE-4-POLE-SINGLE-PHASE-ELECTRIC-MOTOR-240V-B3-B5-B14-B34-B35/114114298158?hash=item1a91be012e:m:myb9B91UYxNzxAsckuyi7qA Cheaper? Just stuck a 4 pole 3/4hp on my drill press after the 3 phase motor burnt out. Not branded but does the job.

	I’ve just put an old washing (really old) machine motor on mine. It’s 4 pole which is 1200ish rpm. The 3 phase motor was2 speed that i took off so its low speed was 600 rpm. Ideally I would prefer an 8 pole motor so it turned slower for bigger bitts but beggars can’t be choosers.

	Nominally it’s 2 pole = 3000rpm, 4 pole = 1500rpm, 6 pole = 1000rpm - less 5 to 10% depending on the motor and assuming DOL 50Hz supply and conventional windings of course (no inverter control or funky twin speed windings).
