Does it have to be an AC motor? Ifd you find a suitable DC motor you can hook a bridge rectifier across it(the motor)

 

check the robot store they have or had a dc motor that you could gear down to several differnt ratios with gears and gearbox inculded.

I'm sure someone will know exactly what I'm trying to do, as I'm not real sure I do! I'm going to make a tram ride on my layout that spans about 14 feet. It will appear as if folks are riding an open type " ski lift " car from a look out tower to a mountain column. I can make the ski lift type cars, use fly line for the cable and I have some really nice little pulleys for the loop. The cars will be fitted with a smallish type arm that will run through the pulleys so the loop can run constantly. What I cannot find is a small AC motor that I can power off my AIU or direct from a transformer. Anyone know of a supplier that would have something like that? It would need to have fairly slow RPM's. I have a motor that dries my guides on the fly rods I make once they are varnished, but it's actually too slow. A person can barely see it turn, so it's just not quite fast enough. Any suggestions? Thanks to all that respond, Jake
