hi guys i keep reading about motors i have been an H.V.A.C mechanic for the past 25 years and the motor i use is a EMERSON 1/3 hp 2 speed belt driven motor witch is a standard motor in most low boy oil furnaces high speed is 1725 rpm and low is 1025 rpm. and then wire it to a three way 120 volt Togo switch
if you go to your local oil company or heating contractor they have old furnaces there all the time from re and re just tell you want an old motor
they will sell them to you cheap if not free
and if you are going to run lots of canisters go get a bigger run capacitor
hope this helps

i use a cannister and stopples that warren was so gracious to give me for free, no charge for shipping or anything they do a wonderful job, but you want to get the spec.'s from him
i use aluminum oxide polish (0.5 micron) the cheapest place ive found it is eBay i know how alot of you feel about buying things off ebay but i use it and it works fine its a good quality so i have no complaints. i recommend buying it from ebay.
