The motor is here. I wired it for 208-230v operation. I'm basically done with a schematic too. I uploaded one that has a couple errors, but it's super annoying getting it in this format, so i'll just attach it as it is. I think I fixed all the mistakes on my schematic that's still on my computer. Basically, it should be VS3 to motor, VS2 to motor and VS1 to motor, instead of how it is in this picture.

Here's the motor:

I think to keep with tradition, I'll first try to drive 3 LEDs, so they should all pulse gradually brighter and darker out of phase by 120 degrees each. That will be a 3 phase 5v 0.01amp controller! hahaha. Just like the good old days.
