Title: 1/3 hp vs. 1/2 hp spinners?
Post by: mrtappedalot on November 01, 2004, 02:45:38 PM

For all of you that have them, have you noticed a significant difference between the two HP, and how big of an advantage is it to have the 1/2 hp?

I'm looking at Vertex BTW, probably from Buddies...

For personal use both will do the work.
If difference in price is not great, get the bigger HP.
Both motors will run at 1725 RPM so giving the same RPM on the bowl. The bigger HP will not labor should you do a lot of sanding or polishing.
