This reminds me. I have a washing machine motor kicking around that needs to be turned into something useful. Its an induction motor though(no brushes)
Its got 7 wires 1 of which is the earth (bolted to casing) If anyone may suggest how to wire it, that would be great. I'll put up a pic if needed.
Its a 2 speed motor(fwd) and I presume it must run in reverse too.
I tried spinning the shaft with a cordless drill and got some small ac voltage off a couple of wires.
I might as well be looking into a green field as this thing.
MOD - Moved to its own thread, may get noticed better!
