Hi Guys
I need a new dryer motor 220V 50/60Hz 3.8W >36 RPM
To buy it thought a tackle shop is $70
Is there a local company that sells this type of elect motor?

Mine is a turntable motor out of an old microwave - works great - just a thought. Cheers, Steve
How urgent is it? I want to place an order with Mudhole before the end of the year and can tag a motor on if you like. Are you sure you want that fast?
The electric motor from a microwave RPM is very slow.
Mate with your order from Mudhole I will keep you in mind

Ken, I've made many rods with my setup - obviously I don't know what you're used to, but my rig works very well. Of course, you can't bind at that speed, but for levelling epoxy it's great. Just sayinOriginally Posted by Rodman

Use a windscreen wiper motor and now the trick that makes it versatile is to fit a PWM ( pulse wave modulation) dc motor controller, you can get them here:
http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/12V-15A-D...item41603cea01
and that gives you is infinite variable speed control so you can get it just right (44 rpm to 0 rpm), power it through a small 12V battery and have a battery charger connected and you won't flatten the battery, or cook the motor.
It will draw about 2.5-3.5 amps and windscreen wiper motors will go forever. No trouble with replacement if it doesn't. A simple foot switch adds instant stop/start.
Hope this helps.
Thank you for your responses I am trying a microwave turntable motor

Hey Ken,
Please let us know how that works out for you.
Cheers, Steve
Think I got my last one of ebay for about $30....wasn't a 36rpm..but you can find almost any rev range
Hi guys well installed my microwave motor OH God it is terribly slow. I have been looking on eBay and there are some there mainly from Hong Kong.
I still need a faster motor as the microwave only rotated at 5RPM

Ken,
This is your best bet
