bearing puller arrived today. had to take it for a spin(ha). so i got the bearing of. the brake is apparently actuated by the magnetic field of the motor, and if you slowly ramp up the voltage with a variac it doesnt run properly. the front bearing does apparently have some piece of debris lodged in it somewhere, so i might replace that in the future when it gives me problems, but i have a bearing puller now, so that'll be way easier. now i need to build a mount for the motor and a case to direct the airflow over the windings and then i can put it into a bandsaw that i have to build first :P

also gotta figure out how to drive that ebm pabst blower.
