WTB Single Phase to 3 Phase converter / VFD

Hello, I recently purchased an older 20" bandsaw with a 3HP 3Phase motor. I don’t know much about these things but from reading I think I’ll need to get an appropriate VFD to convert from 240v single phase to the 3 phase to run the motor. Curious if anyone has one they’re willing to sell or other options I should consider.

Thank you!

You can buy a phase converter or make one yourself using another single phase motor. You may find it easier and cheaper to look for a used single phase motor to simply replace your current bandsaw motor.
