Today I acquired...........

[Sammy7]

A KB KBIC240 DC controller (mains to motor) is good, but not that cheap, there are also Chinese copies (the real KB are mostly surface-mount, the Chinese old-school leaded components - so easer to fix if/when they go wrong), they'll give you presets for max current limit, min / max speed, acceleration and IR compensation (stabilises speed), needs a single external potentiometer for setting speed and a "HP resistor" that plugs into the board to match the motor (e,g, a 2HP for that motor). There are also "cheap" all-in-one motor controllers on EvilBay...

Alternative is a fairy chunky bridge rectifier (e.g. 10A, 400v) fed from a thyristor/PWM controller capable of 6 amps or more, doesn't get the clever features you'd get with the KB or clone, though and there's the risk you could over-volt it.

Something like this would do it pretty well if you can wait a while:

No. Be a good human, Google the difference between wanting and winning.

Now, I had a new hammer, but I want it

Well I was looking to tools but scrap tends to follow me home.


It’s a little Daimler 250 engine. I’ll get a picture up tomorrow.

MMMMMMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmm I always wanted to fit one of those into a Bond Equipe Convertible, Broph had the engine in a garage for years but when I started to get serious he got rid of it.

A Juta bag filled with thrash
There's an angle grinder which I think might be saved ,a Dremel kind of thing (not original), an electric wood planner ,some cordless drills (I will only the motor and the chucks)
Tomorrow I will upload some images also because I have to figure out what save and what dismantle to save parts

Don't. It will be a waste of your time.

Send it to me. I will waste time.
