Well ... my Nichols, which has fairly small table and travel
(10" on the X axis, IIRC) has a 1HP three-phase motor. I'm not sure how
much smaller your prospective mill is.

I always thought your Nichols was just an older version of mine, but maybe
it is smaller.
My table is 30" X 8½" and the travel is 17½" X 6"
I knew mine had 3 T slots where yours only the center slot was a T.
