Maxon motor GP...

Hi! Sorry I'm late. I'm still on the road (wife posting this (hi guys)). I'll be back on the 20th.
We have the 5 even if Mark doesn't want an extra (1 sklimek, 1 eric, 2 aengus, 1 cwise). If anyone would like to contact Maxon and secure the pricing, please do. In fact, it may be advisable for someone to take over the buy altogether because I'll soon be back on the road again for 2 weeks. If you'd still like me to do it, I'll contact Maxon when I get back in town on Friday the 20th.
Best,
Stan

Yay sklimek; and thank you, sklimek's wife. But let me quickly correct a misapprehension - I want only one motor! Michi124 said (post #471):
in a post adjacent to one of mine - perhaps that caused some confusion? Or perhaps it was post # 463, where I said - in entirety and, in retrospect, confusingly:
By this I meant only to be keeping a running count of the number of motors people had spoken for - not that I wanted two for myself.
But I definitely want one, and so, adding Michi124 to sklimek's list, we have: 1 sklimek, 1 eric, 1 aengus, 1 cwise, 1 michi124, for a total of five in any case.
May I recommend that everybody in this list confirm their interest, ideally by the 20th when Stan is back?

OK Fella's,
Since you have 5 for the motor buy I'll step out. I was lookin to get a backup but as others have said I shouldn't need it. I just didn't want to have the motor lunch out and have to cough up 250 for a new one.
On the pulley I ordered three but only need one so cygnus x1 and Aengus you can have the other two. Maybe DaveM can ship the pulleys direct to you so we don't have to double up on shipping.

Mark , thank you, that is a generous offer on the pulley. Have you already paid, in which case how should I pay you? Or, if you haven't, can you please tell me to whom, and how, and how much, I should pay? So I don't have to re-read the thread again.
And, re the motor: if you want the spare, I assume you needn't step out - six should be the same price/motor as five...
DaveM, can you ship direct? Should I send you an address?
Thank you both.

To mimick what Aengus said...
Mark, thanks for giving up the pulleys. If you paid for them already, I'm happy to send you payment...or DaveM if not. Just let us know.
DaveM, can you ship to us?
Sklimek, how would you like to be paid for the motor?
Should I send all of you my address, etc.?
Do you all have email for easy communication?
You all made me VERY happy!

Hi, Chuck is difficult to reach so I have replied to his email thinking this may be more efficient. Here is my reply:

Hi Chuck, thank you for your reply.
I am interested in purchasing soon (5) of the Maxon motor #110191 a-max 26mm. I am replying to confirm that the price break for this quantity of (5) will be $83.90 ea plus shipping if any and may be purchased by credit card. I am excited that you offer these fine motors in small quantities, their end use will be to supply a regulated turntable speed for some custom made diy phonographic turntables by a few dedicated diy fanatics.
Please confirm that these prices are correct and how and where I may send payment.

Cygnus X1, Aengus,
Please send me your info so that I can bill you for the pulleys.
Also I don't have an email address for billing for Cwise and Astro_nut
I did a count and check and I have an option of aluminum for a few people. I have 3 (I think) pulleys in aluminum. My home computer has completely crashed in the past week, so I am doing this all on my work machine. (Thank God for an understanding employer)
So if anyone is ok with or would like an aluminum pulley, let me know. I went back and checked the setup parts and most of them are very useable.
My suggestion for mounting these is to use Threadlock bearing holder. I plan to get my motor mounted using the little tap holes on the top of the motor to bolt it to a plate. The flatness of the mounting plate is going to be pretty important, as I plan to use that surface to double as an alignment surface. I am then going to get a piece of shim stock that I can use to assure a consistant gap between the pulley and the mounting plate. Test the alignment and spacing off the shim before glueing, as I believe that the threadlock will be a bit of a bear to get apart. Put a drop of threadlock on the end of the shaft and slide the pulley down until it rests on the shim. This way you are aligning the pulley with the shaft and the shim. Of the pulleys I have checked with my motor, they all slide on tight and should not have any issues with alignment, but the idea with the shim is to elimenate any possibility for error.

Just heard from Chuck from Maxon, here is his reply:
"Prices are stated below. Credit card is good. So would need to get the
info. from you. Yes you would pay for shipping charges. Note we do not
ship to PO boxes so would need a street address.
Too bad Tower Records going out of business. It started in Sacramento,
Ca.
chuck"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
O.K., lets get going, if everyone could one last time indicate their interest and how many, we are trying to reach (5) for the $83.90 break, not sure what shipping is (shouldn't be more than a couple bucks ea) but will post once I have the commitments and final cost from Chuck - Stan
