i am split 50/50 with this idea.
I see where ur going with it but it has chances of not working, because of this reason, lots of fan motors can either produce high rpms and really low torque or really high torque and low rpms....maybe if u can get a fan motor in the pretty high thousands and then gear it down, it might work

Well im thinkin anything other than a fan motor wont be quiet so itll have to be like 1 of those huge industrial fan motors...

Yes it work and the gearing is called pullys, just trading one type of energy for another, that's all. You will need a 10hp I think it is a 3 phase @220V but it should work fine, lol. Polo. :-O

GW would cry, then he would laugh, then he would get very upset, his canines would glisten in the moonlight, and saliva would slowly trickle off of his fangs.

Run for the hills...........
