Ken,

Yes, you went through quite a journey on your conversions! Not only cost, but time and hassle I imagine. Your summary is excellent and the best I've seen for a budget Viel setup.

For my Viel:
  • S-5 without motor, $80 (Lee Valley)
  • Baldor M3464, $235 (Williamson Electric)
  • KBAC-24D, $170 (ebay)
  • KB reverse and AC switches, $26 (ebay)
Add another $20-30 for cabling and hardware, and I've spent around $540 before belts. I know that's a lot for some guys starting out and getting close to "serious" grinder money. Oh well, I'm not the smartest guy when it comes to sticking to a budget  Angel.
