Can I do an AC motor cart
« on: May 24, 2010, 06:36:50 PM »
I have built with my students a DC powered bicycle pusher.  What I was wondering is, can I make an AC powered pusher using my Honda 2k generator for the power and two scroll saw motors  (3.5 amps each) as the axles?  I know it will not be green, but is it possible, or will I easily burn out the motors.  Note:  no one will be standing on the cart, it will be used to push a bicycle.
