What is needed to " start " , not actually operate a 7.5 HP lathe motor ? Would a 10 horse do it ? The difference between a 10 vs 15 is about $500 . I do not plan on keeping the lathe , just showing it to interested parties wanting to see it run . The 10 would run anything and everything else planned for the small shop . TIA .
