Best place to get Variable speed controller?

[Trace Rinaldi]

I have a Leeson 1.5 HP DC motor thats been in the box for months now.. I need a reversing controller, and then I will slap it in a JL grinder.. Who has the best prices? Thanks in advance..

If you want to go new, this is the place to go. Minarik is a main distributor of Leeson motors and controls. They also have the best prices. Mine is an MM23201A, reversing, with brake, cheaper w/o brake.
This # also has a NEMA I box, NEMA4, or 12, is going to set you back a little more, I just used silicon around the joints.
