cool. you should have you power supply fans on a separate supply because you dont want them slowing down when your at full load, thats just asking for fire.lol
I was building a home made air raid siren a few years back but couldn't get castings for the rotor and housing (I think it has a centrifugal fan rotor on it at the moment.)
I'll do an updated tour vid soon, I've changed a lot since I did the first one.
@Aussie50 Everyone need their own air raid siren lol. I would like to see a 10kW one :) I could put one together using a fender bass cab speaker and head and a mp3 I have of an actual air raid siren coupled to a pair of 1kW Crown amplifiers, :-D

It won't burn, but in summer it may need extra cooling.
the slowing of the fans tells me if its overloading, then I move the workpiece around or limit the current flow.

oh wait... you already have one :)
you need to get an air raid siren to play with
or make a fire piston with your lathe
both are fun

i built one out of an old backpack blower and some sheet aluminum, it was LOUD!!! i had to get rid of it though, neighbors hated me lol.
i'm looking forward to more vids!

awesome, I'll have to make a shroud for mine and try it out. maybe an old aluminum saucepan would work if I cut and slot it to the right size.
