Finally putting my 2 wheel Lortone back together and have a question on motor hp suggestions . My thoughts are to have an 8" wheel on one end and an 8" expanding drum on the other end . Just curious if a 1/4 hp , which I have a few , motor would be sufficient to run this setup . If I had a 1/3 hp I would use it , the one I have is on the super grinder . Any thoughts ?

Think of it another way, you have two one-wheel grinders, hard to use more than one wheel at a time and none requiring much hand pressure. If mine, I would put the 1/4 on.
