Hi All
On offer is a number if bits and pieces I savaged from a few printers I stripped down some time ago. You can see the bits in the pics, but here's a better list:

1) Stepper motors
2) Toothed belts
2) Geared motors (probably 1 rev/min)
3) Fans
4) All sorts of springs/brackets metal strips etc.
5) Solenoids/ Latches
6) Damping bars

If you're pretty handy and can make something out of these, you're welcome to them! What comes to mind for me is a robot with all the steppers, but I'm sure you might have your own ideas 😁

You're welcome to pop round and take a look and decide, but if you want them, all need to go at once. If you take them, I'm quite happy for you to give some away to someone else if they can use them. They are all in storage boxes and you're welcome to the boxes too.

I used one of the steppers to motorise my microscope to photograph insects. Worked just dandy!

If you're into electronics, I used a PIC chip to control it and a stepper motor driver board to supply the signals for the stepper. If you go down that route, I can let you have info on how it was done.

As a bit of a hoarder, it would break my heart to take them down the tip.
