Steve,

It'll be a Teco JNEV-203-H1 VFD.

Good move Ed, I was thinking that a 3 ph motor would start with full torque and almost instant peak rpm, possibly resulting in belt squeal and wear compared to the 1 ph motor but that is moot now, you can ramp up your speed to your liking with the VFD.

I have a VFD on my boxford lathe and love it
The ramp start is a great feature
