Two words, Goodwill store...  ;)

Del the cat:
Some electric motors are a nightmare.... more coloured wires than a transatlantic cable.
I used to be an electronics design engineer but they give me the heebie jeebies. You'll prolly find a Youtube video showing how to wire it up.
I was toying with the idea of making one into a wind generator... but i told myself to stop being daft and make bows instead :)

Now Osage...why would i go buy a $20 hairdryer and be ready to go when i can spend hours Jerry rigging this to be cumbersome and slightly dangerous??  I just looked up dual start capacitors online and found one for "only" $40....my idea makes more sense every minute....I'll report out after I've wasted hours down this rabbit hole...

Thanks, Paul
