I agree with your post, but I want to note that size 3 starters are
very expensive, even used.

In this case Glen should probably make his choice based on what he
intends to run from the convertor. The size 2 should be fine for a 3 hp
Bridgeport (say) but could be inadequate for a bad ass welder like yours
:-).

By the way, I like your pics of the new phase convertor. I missed the
pictures when you first posted them, but just saw them now. Nice job.
