I've been hauling around an old Century Electric Co. AC motor 1/4 hp for the past 20 years, why I don't know. I checked it to see if it worked today and it does. It is mounted in a nice frame and looks to be bench table ready. Any ides what I can use this for? It has a 5/8" shaft with a keyway.

Thanks

Make a grinding/buffing wheel rig :)

Good idea Kevin. I don't do any of that sort of thing though. Have to look into it. Thanks.

How about using it to run a table or bench saw? I have one myself and might go that route.
