OK then. 
No, I have not built one. I've always been more of a Tesla Coil person.
Plans should be easy to find via Google, but if you can't, just head to the library. You'll find a good set of plans in the book "The Gadgeteer's Goldmine" by Gordan McComb.

Vacuum motors will need 120V or 220V to run at full speed and power. They can run at lower voltages, but you will have to experiment and see if the motor can still produce enough torque at 12, 24, 36 or 48V. I don't recommend going any higher then that until you have experience.
The most popular type of batteries are the small AGM lead acid type batteries used in computer UPSs, emergency lighting, alarm systems, etc.
