Slow RPM motor

I was going to install a power feed on my small milling machine and thought this motor would be great. To keep it short, here are the facts
Motor is from the incline function on a treadmill. The shaft/gear is one piece and very hard, so I made a new shaft to make an adapter for the drive but when it was all together, found out it is only 3.2 RPM so too slow for my application.

If anyone wants this motor with extra shaft and the matching rack, you can have it for the cost of shipping.
The axle is not my best work, but probably not my worst...
Motor is reversible and 120 vac. Should be in an intermittent use application, ie short duty cycle. To reverse the motor takes a SPDT switch. Easy peezy

PM me if interested.

I have a few more of these motors, similar, not identical. They are the incline motor from treadmills. Intended for short duty cycles. But if someone needs/wants one let me know. Yours for shipping.

I also have a few of the treadmill main motors. Some quite large, all DC motors. If you need, we can discuss.

Time to clean up! Need space for new toys! :D
