Here is a simple circuit I use for a pillar drill. It suffers from speed
variation due to mains fluctuations. And is only suited for AC/DC (eg brush)
motors, and must not be used on AC Induction motors!

My drill motor was only 500 Watt so...
D1 is 1N5403 (50A peak), D2 is 1N4003
C is a 0.1uF (63v)
DIAC any 20v device (higher voltage = less control at low RPM.)
220R is optional depending on the sensitivity of the SCR.
SCR is a 3A 400V device (50A peak) it can be a Triac as D1 inhibits wrong
way conduction. (mine used to blow up until I added the diode.)
Switch shorts out controller for full Power.
Multi turn low speed control is a preset pot in my design.
This circuit attempts to put DC out to the motor 50 times a second, every other
half cycle (variable to half power mode). How much DC depends on the preset
setting & the motor back emf. Hence the power/torque has some feedback feature
unlike just phase control, & enables variable torque loads to be handled much
better, without dramatic RPM changes.
