    need plans for a rod lathe/binder/dryer

    Hi all
    Just wondering if anyone has an idea about how to convert an old direct drive sewing machine motor into a lathe/dryer/binder. The one i have is to fast directly from the motor its self.
    thanks

    Depending on the amps your motor is rated at, you can get a suitable dimmer switch from an electrical store and get it wired in.
    Hope this helps.

    thanks dudley,
    my motor is .5 of an amp so it should handle a dimmer fine.
