So, the magic smoke came out of the static phase converter on one of my mills. What I'm thinking now is that I'll use the remaining converter on the other mill and a 3-phase motor I have to make a rotary converter to run both mills. I remember getting the wiring diagram to do this with the last phase-a-matic I bought, but now can't find that anywhere. If anyone has that diagram or somewhere I can find it, that would really help me out.

Bad picture but you can see the box and the 15hp idler motor on the ground.

Wish I could see that in person so I could take a picture of it. It would most definately win me a free dinner at my monthly ICC meetings.
