Thanks again guys. I think I'm going to put this one on the back burner until I finish making the doors for the sideboard I promised my wife would be done by June.
The pulley system which came with the saw is supposed to be able to reduce the blade speed down to 800 rpm with a 1750 rpm motor. If I use a 3500 rpm motor, there shouldn't be a problem hitting 3000 rpm using one of the pulley combinations and Lorings formula.
I will certainly check the wire size before I attempt anything. I can always steal the switch and wiring from the donor table saw.
Thanks again for the input.
