Thanks Bob and Huw . Well I know a little about electronics, they were part of my studies but it's a bit far away now :o) I got a few step motors but from old printers they are really huge ones and from the scanner that broke up it's a 7.5 degrees.... I can gear it with all the pulley and belt I collected from various things but.... well in fact I've got to test different solutions because I do not want a 20 pounds camera (without the battery ) ! :o)
( Well after that I'll have to do a led enlarger for panoramic shots !! ;o) ) Cedric On Wed, 25 Sep 2002 22:51:47 +0100, Huw Finney wrote: >Hi, >Stepper motors can be geared and it works very well, take a look >inside >a printer (to be found in your local skip (dumpster)) there is >usualy a >couple of big steppers and some gears and a very useful toothed belt. >There are plenty of stepper driver chips out there.
