So Paypal says the funds will be back in my account the morning of the 13th, the exact time Visa would have got involved. 38 emails and a lot of frustration. So now I have this smooshed motor, pretty big dent in the front cover. I hate to toss out a new 2hp motor so I took it apart and as far...

The thermal cut out seems to be working fine, I added a new lead to the terminal that had been snipped and the motor is running well now. Thanks all.

Yes, 4 wires coming out, T1 going to one terminal of the thermal breaker. Is it safe to assume the snipped off lead on the other side of the thermal breaker would have been P1?

I will be powering it with 240v, the diagram shows T5 wired with T4 for CCW which is what I need. Everything does match up except for the missing P1. Here are the leads coming out of the motor,

I p/u a what looks like a new 3hp ph1 230v motor, I went to wire it up to test but it seems P1 is missing. I took the back off to make sure it didn't fall back into the motor, it hadn't, then just kept staring at it until I noticed someone had snipped the lead coming from the thermal breaker...

Wait until you run into British Wittworth, 1/2"-12, I don't even have a 12 tooth on my thread gauge. Could figure it out what it was, manage to sort it out. All I wanted to do was chase some badly mangled threads, you have the choice of an expensive tap that will last 2 life times even though...

Just watched Phil Vandelay's last installment where he constructs dust/spark containment, I think I'll go with something like that. Just a note for anyone thinking about building a 2x72, take note of the length of the footprint, Jer's Gen2 has a minimum length of 34", with a catch pan, 38-40"...

It's back up to $82

Requires iphone 12 or newer, I'm still back at 6:rolleyes:

Not at all, digital gauges measure with great accuracy but a lot of projects don't require such fine tolerances. I keep the digital calipers for those situations but the vernier and dial calipers are the ones I use the most.
