Hi anyone,
Not sure this is right place to try to explain my frustrations, but here goes. I have been doing hobby woodworking for a number of years, mostly small items fro nieces, aunts, wife, etc. I have watched a ton of utubes and other videos about shop made tools which consists of wood, motors, electrical components, etc. I have to admit my total depravity of knowledge about electricity and other such science. To the point!!! A lot of shop made jigs, tools combine wood and some part of electricity. The wood - I understand, but most projects are vague in describing the actual electrical components and how they work. I get lost when someone talks about single, three phase motors, putting some type adapters to change their currents, etc. I know I could come to this site and ask any questions I have regarding a problem I might run into, but is there any sites or books I might investigate to increase my knowledge of this so that when I do come to this I will be able to ask my questions in a way in could be understood?
