Not a "which model" or anything like that, but does anyone know if it's possible to slow the motor down on one using a dimmer type switch?
I have a little Vax Mach8 which is currently being used as part of a dust extraction system in a blast cabinet, though at the moment it's much too powerful and sucking half the media out as well as the dust.
I was thinking of something like a light dimmer switch though, as I know the square root of bugger all about either electricity or motors, thought that someone may be able to point me in the right direction as in what to get to slow it down.
The only condition is that it needs to be variable as it will be a lot of trial and error, plus different air pressure for various things, so adjustment will be necessary.
