    Jim,

    How about a simple relay that is turned on by a TIP 120 transistor? I am assumming that you are controlling it from your parallel port.
    Relay example.

    On a side note you need to be careful with them. Watch for false starts. Be sure the power is turned off when you start your computer and your controller program.
