Hello Al
In your search of a big Watt Resistor, the most common to use is a radiator/owen ore a big Watt Lamp, a wall mounted radiator of 2000W with several steps is absolutely the best, but the most fancy is to use a big Bulb Lamp/Halogen, then you can see how much ampere the motor is using.
Across the Radiator/owen ore bulb you can use a start relay on the AC Volt side or a FET on the DC Volt side.
It was very common in the old time to use Radiator/Owen elements as resistor, by the way you can also use a Iron,
If this explanation is a bit to short, i have more info.
All the best
