VOTE - $500 new motor for metal lathe

General
1

The motor on the metal lathe failed in a spectacular way earlier. (fire)
This is to get a replacement motor.
Kevin found this one;

Looks to be about $400, with shipping and tax I’m thinking $500 should cover it.
This is a Baldor motor, which should be orders of magnitude better than the original knock off motor.

This vote closes at tonight’s meeting, correct?

15

I believe so.

We need to figure out how to buy it. I don’t really have a buffer to buy it then get repaid. (been off work for 8 months).

16

I don’t mind helping with that if no one else volunteers.

17

Yes.

Thank you,
Rob
