So far my choices seem to be 1) replace the motor, 2) get a static phase convertor, or 3) get 3 phase brought in. #3 is out! So I'm open to suggestions, I have a bridgeport drive but don't really want to use it for this.
Seeing as the manual shows 4 "standard speeds" for the table feed, I think I would go with a cheap VFD. You could still use the original motor for the table and a VFD would give you infinite choices for a feed rate as opposed to a static convertor that would not.
