While I like the idea of the VFD converters I need to do this on the
cheap for the moment. Would one of those "motor ready" boxes on the
market be cost effective? It looks like the box wouldn't be more than
about $200 - $250. Even if I could build it cheaper the convenience
would be worth a lot to me right now.

You can get a VFD for less than 200 - 250.
