Default Transwave Converter

I am looking for a Transwave Converter to run a round head Colchester Triumph lathe (5HP motor) , I already have a static converter to run my mill but its not quite big enough to run the lathe. Consider a rotary or static type so please PM me if you have anything suitable for sale at a reasonable price.

Get a transwave rotary if your budget stretches that far, I have a 15hp for the DSG and it is a very nice piece if kit. Quite quiet considering the size of the unit (also effin heavy - 80kg).
Got mine off ebay, second hand, about half the price of a new one and only a year old!
If you get a big enough you can run mill and lathe together like I can.
The main positive re rotary is no minimum load, so suds pumps and power feeds dont trip if you stop main spindle etc!
