Purchased a cheap Powermatic 26 shaper with 3 phase motor. Priced expecting to replace with 1 phase motor (turns out the spindle was bent and the spindle cartridge is too old to repair- another issue and more cost). Bought 3hp motor that frame fits the mounting plate but the motor shaft was 15/16", larger than the existing motor shaft and bore for motor pulley. Tried to drill out bore on stationary drill press but error in not centering drill and pulley is now unbalanced and useless.
Option of purchasing another pulley from Powermatic (or Grizzly clone) and having local machine shop to bore out to 15/16" if not correct bore. Any recommendations for shop and estimate as to how much?
Alternative of search for generic pulley of similar diameter and 15/16" bore. Recommendations for local source? Internet source?
