My Taiwan made 1-1/2HP, 110/220V motor died and I am thinking of
replacing it with a Leeson's Farm Duty motor. Anyone knows if Farm
Duty motor is suitable for woodworking machines? Further is Grizzle's
motor any good or where could I find a good deal for woodworking's
motor? Thank you.

Farm duty motors are green, green is ok...stay away from blue motors.
Usually farm duty motors are totally enclosed drip proof and will serve you
well. Keep an eye on http://www.surpluscenter.com/
they have been a good, cheap supplier for me.
