Anyone have a source?
Thanks...

I missed your post yesterday! I was amazed that you hadn't gotten any help, but there were over a 100 posts on what folks love and hate in life and sometimes that kind of thing is more important
I looked inside my Sprint Plotter which I believe is similar, but check whats written on the motors. I have 2 motors a Superior Electric Motor from Bristol CT its part no. is MA61FS-62020 its 3.9v @60hz ans 1.25a Spec A211 900 200steps per rev and Hold 60oz.in I have an address here I found on the net www.superiorelectric.com a contact person Lori Stepp (good name) 800-787 3532
This I guess is an original, I also have another motor its a Mineba Co. Ltd Mini-angle Stepper 23LM-C304-91 5.1 V.phase 1.8 deg/step 1.0 A.Phase
Anyhow Good luck I hope you find what you need.....failing that didn't Mark Fair have an old 4B as a step into his shop

Mark, I thought about calling Mike about that 'step' that he's got to see if I could get one of the motors, but I figured that it's probably under about 2 feet of snow by now.

You've got to admit...nobody knows profit like Gerber. The last time I heard about a profit like that was when Hillary spent $1000.00 on cattle futures and turned that into $100,000.00 in one year. Maybe I should bump up my shop rate to $10,000.00 per hour....hmmmm?????

It must run in the family! Do we realize that one jar of overcooked, over-processed baby food that is 30 cents in the store, can be made (and kept in its natural state) in a blender for 1/10 of a cent?
That's probably where they came up with the markups in computer parts!
