Using Ohms law the motor specs you have posted doesn’t tally with that calculation Brian.
W divide by V = R
150\12 makes it 12.5 amp loading.
Every time I look at this I find contradictory, missing and confusing information. The loading figures come from one of the information sheets on ebay. I have used that calculation but did not believe it, I can run my electric oven with that.
Additionally a 12.5Amp 220AC/12VDC power pack is a serious bit of kit.
My build is based on a lathe built by "Uri Tuchman" he is a guy I follow on You Tube, well worth a look he builds some wonderful stuff.
The lathe was originally powered by a treadle from an old sewing machine but he electrified it with the motor I have copied and controlled it with this
