I am looking at a two Chas. F. L'Hommedieu buffer package deal 10 HP but it is 440 volt 3 phase so I would have to change motors.It is belt driven and has one motor that runs the 2 buffers.The two buffers are independent from the motor so changing motors should be pretty easy.I can then have 4 different size wheels set up for different metals.They were surplus from a chrome plant but the dealer is local so I won't have any crate and freight charges if I pick them up myself.They are very heavy.I almost got a dual 20 HP Hammond really cheap with belt drive sanding attachment but it was 440 3phase and would have cost me more than the unit for shipping and handling then it would cost me an arm and a leg to convert it to 220 if I could even do it.If this doesn't pan out I am going to go with a 1 and a half baldor 3600 110 or 220 new unit.Thanks for the tips Skiddz.
