聽 So this morning I went hunting around for my variable speed control.聽 Which I had previously used for my blower fan that connected to my twier and into my coal fire forge.聽 Worked quite nicely for that and moved a ton of air.聽 Either way I had repurposed it.聽 I wanted to test something out to see if I could get a slower speed than 600 RPM on the Harbor Freight wood lathe.聽 So I hooked the variable speed into the lathe this morning to test that theory.聽 I don't he a tacometer to verify it.聽 How ever it seems to he worked.聽 It does make a couple of clicks but I can only assume that the clicking noise is the variable speed control talking to the motor telling it to spin at a certain speed.聽 Here is the video result of the hole thing.聽 No music just lathe sounds.聽 Almost 2 minutes.聽 So score 1 for me.
