What voltage is your motor? If it's 208, keep the 3 phase and use a variable frequency drive(VFD). I run a few of my machines this way and now prefer small 3 phase motors over single phase because I can make them variable speed. Best part is that a VFD is relatively cheap to buy.

Started to go down that road, I agree a better way, but 220V and 2 phase, might try looking a little more, but 2 phase VFD are hard to find or even available. Then I started to think about buying a 3 phase motor and a VFD, the motor plate is smashed and hard to tell what number the frame is
