Wow, lots of replies :-)
And yeah; it is about 10% fast not slow. So 55hz would make it faster! lol
Motor says 50KTYZ - but no 1/1.2 50/60 text; Possibly a rip off motor that is 'approx' 1RPM at 50Hz... It is Australia here and deffo 50Hz; so I reckon just a crappy motor (look at the spelling...
Sort of. But i was thinking more along the lines of a chip, or two, a crystal and the odd resistor and capacitor. Powered from rectified mains and a resistor/zener down to 5v....
My initial thought was a 10Mhz xtal and a chain of dividers. But i need it to be adjustable 55Hz +-10ish. Then i...

So, having an electronics background (but not for about 25 years!) I thought, no problem; i'll do a...
