    Spindle motor upgrade!?

    Ok I would like to increase spindle power as I seem to get it stuck or slow down on some cuts. Anyone looked into this idea to just mount a more powerful motor (say 2hp) and made it work?

    How big of 2 hp motor, maybe no place for such big motor. That what i have tried. Maybe using BLDC motor (1.5 HP)--> cost?, that is what I plan.
