I just ordered my plans on Wednesday (on ebay - don't ask me why I chose ebay instead of Tracy's website. I am really looking forward to building this and getting started.
I was wondering. I will be able to get a 1/3 HP motor for free. Will that be beefy enough to get the job done or should I really consider looking for a larger motor.
Also, I've wondered... To make the motor variable speed, could I rig up a household dimmer switch to the motor's power supply or would that throw things out of wack?
