-> but the darn thing was a 3-phase unit.  We're *slowly* getting there.
Hey, there aint nothing wrong with three phase motors!  They'll run on
single phase!  Go to an airconditioner junkyard and chingle the man for
the BIGGEST run capacitor he has lying around.  The motor has three
wires.  Tie the run capacitor between two of them, then hook the juice
to the one that's left, and one of the others.
Depending on HOW big the run cap is, it works fine.  (Might be a bit low
on starting torque.)
