Hey Grepper,
Though I have not yet finished my DC motor project on my Kally, I have all the pieces ready.
Since I had an old treadmill, I pulled the guts out. It says the motor is rated at 2.77 hp, which I find hard to believe.
But, it probably has enough hp.
The best part is that it was easy to pull the speed controller out as a separate unit, hook up a 1k potentiometer and control the speed.
Pretty simple stuff, and a nice reuse of an unused large object in my house!
Will post pics once I get it moving forward...
Wade.
Oh, and I enjoyed the video!
But, it left me wanting to send the dude a MIG welder
