Might be able to make an impression on balsa. :( FWIW, I now have that VFD turning the spindle at 100 rpm, and I can't stop it by hand. Drawing about 2.6 amps a coil. Now I'm letting it run to see how long it takes to warm the water 10C. So I believe that problem is solved! And my VNA kit just walked in the garage door asking for a signature. Amazing. Now I have to learn how to run it. Fun and games for old wet ram. Cheers, Gene Heskett -- "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
