Learn something new every day - front load washing machines

Thanks for the post Alloy2,, I have put a few of these motors aside to use on a lathe and my small drill press.
I didn't know they needed the circuitboard to drive them though...

The advantage for using them in a drill press, in theory, is that I could use it as a tapping machine to tap threads in things.
I make stuff out of bullet shells as a hobby and it takes a long time for any certain operation when you make 100 of something.

The guys setup in the YouTube video is quite nice, using a off the shelf 3 phase controller with only a little work to set it up.

Thanks again.
