Jeff, thats just the coolant pump/high/low/forward/reverse relays. You
do need a phase converter. Take a look at the motor data plate and see
what the HP rating is. You can get by with a cheapy PhaseOmatic
converter or take the time and make your own rotary converter from the
various free plans done by many of the gentlemen on this newsgroup. Id
be happy to donate a 3 phase motor of proper horsepower. I can probably
scrounge you up a cabinet, and other Stuff as well.
Wow, thanks again, I'll gratefuly take you up on your offer! The Logan
has a 2hp 3-phase motor. Do you still have my work email? I'll be
happy to send any other info off-list.

My email is good, simply reply or email to this post.

Im still looking for other sources. Oh..btw..did you ask Greer about
chucks? He had some L0 three jaws for around $50 G
I ended up buying a nice, almost-new independent 4-jaw from Greer. I
was fooling around with centering some of the bar-stock I got when I
picked up the Logan and I can get the 4-jaw to center to a thou' or
so. Pretty cool! Thanks for the tip! (If anyone's curious, Greer's in
So. Cal., site is at: http://www.greermachinery.com/).

Hey, did you get that Gorton mill ID'd?

Not yet. Ive been told by an old time Gorton guy, that its a rather
scarce item called a Jig Mill. It has the atributes of both a jig borer
and a small mill.

I worked at Jeffs about 12 hrs Saturday, moving stuff around and got to
the point where I could reach that Jig Mill, and pull it out of that
corner so I could put it on the forklift. Damn that little ******* is
heavy. Its NOT going to come home with me on my little utility trailer.
Im going to have to make arraingements to borrow a heavier duty trailer,
or get somone to haul it up over the mountain for me.

Its going to look really nice next to its big brother, the Gorton 1-22
Mastermill that I rebuilt. Btw..there are two of the Mastermills on ebay
going rather cheaply.
