Subject: RE: Namiki 1701 pager motors



: Thanks Rob, I have recently crushed my dead cd-drive and indeed I found
two
: electromotors. But the motors from pagers are such nice small thingies,
and
: I have 1 and need one more for my photovore.
:
: Maybe I can make a symet from the cdmotor. Just what exactly is meant by a
: symet? A bot with just 1 motor and a solar cell???
:
: Thank!

: Arno,
: I don't normally answer anyone on the listen much but I can answer yours
: so ....
: You can find very nice little motors in CD drives that move the head
: backwards and forwards. Someone on the list tried them and found the
: ones they had were better than expensive ones! I got a few from a
: surplus place but they must be easy to get find in dead drives.
: There are also some nice coils and magnets to point the laser beam but I
: don't have an idea for them yet.
