Hmm.. Makes me think of building a homemade model using a variable frequency drive. I'm going to have to research this one!
If you had a spare drive and motor just 'laying around' it would be a good project. A little expensive if you had to buy them. Just be careful to match the drive to the hp/kw of the motor. If you do it, keep us posted, us electricians like stuff like that.

Have the freq drives gotten that cheap? They were still in the neighborhood of $500 up when I retired, although I 'spose like all electronics, they've gotten cheaper...
Do they now make a single-phase version?
