Hey Hey! I have a new to me shaper 
Problem is I cant get it going yet
It is has a 3 phase motor on it and I am not sure how to get it running from my 240 V (uk) supply 
I have posted a piccy of the shaper and of the motor thats on it

This is a picture of it as I was wondering how to get it out of my van on my own and stood upright on the floor!

Now I know you can do what I want with some sort of converter, but what sort and how big do i need to look out for
I hope a bright spark out there can help me
thanks
