finding out it is more complicated than that and as i said if there
is a starter winding it is more complicated
you can look at some variable speed tools and see they just avoid
going near the rpm where the starter circuit will close

pulleys would work but not what i want to do nor a gearbox
will have to research a cone drive but i think i know what that is
also will need to check for pneumatic and universal
pneumatic probably not going to be the choice but have never looked
into that so maybe i find different
have found VFD and motor combos that look good and are not crazy
expensive and the VFD gives a lot of flexibility
