I have a wood lathe and want to power it with a DC motor to be able to get better speed control. I have seen people use treadmill motors. I happen to have a few old 24 volt electric scooters (the larger kind with seat not the smaller stand-up only kind). I'd like to use that motor. I want to use AC to supply power to it.

Can I use the controller and speed control from the scooter and power it with a transformer or DC power supply? Do I need to buy a different controller? more: can ho iris garden I don't have the specs for the scooters until I drag them out of storage (big job); I'm just looking for a general.
