Motors

Bernhard,

Somehow this thread has slipped under my radar, probably because I was an early orderer of the motors and pulleys, and I'm not getting email notifications of the thread (I will now!). But just to let you know, I'm still in for two motors and two pulleys for tape drive.

Cheers
 
Hi guys,

Sorry for the delay. Been too busy lately to check this forum on a daily basis. I fear that the group purchase will not happen. The final quote when I actually went to buy was $19.50 per capacitor! They really didn't want to do the order. Too much money for me to pay out.

I really tried...

Best Regards,

Dale
 
hmmm.... tis pity tis true and pity tis tis true. Nay tis a tragedy. Got some vintage pio's in the meanwhile but still need the 0.47uF to parallel and make up full cap value on my pre-amp. Some budget Ansar supersounds are doing a stirling job there at the moment. Can't wait to remove those dry polyprops and get all oils in.
 
All,
let's mourne for the 1µ0 if the guy tells me none are left.

Until then, let's think positive! :wiz:

If there are some left, i will still hav eto go over the distributor, but i will get a price below $14 a piece, maybe considerably.
 
Mike,
Pulley list still open. And, as i said, i may dig out another pair of maxons.
I care tomorrow that the purchasing list is updated.

Somehow the email starved in my sendbox, went out today.

All maxon fans,,
maybe you care to look in the analog board after my strobe flasher, in the DIY TT motor thread . You will need something similar to that to adjust the voltage regulator for proper motor speed.
Then tell me who wants just the crystal or the whole thing as a kit. Or as assembled circuit, but you will have to bribe me a bit for that . 🙂
 
Petter and all,

i hope to arrive at a price of $10 per piece, maybe better. No idea how low i can get the price, but US$14 i am not willing to swallow.

This year there was a sale at Conrad, haviong prices at about $6 but who knows if Conrad sold a surplus lot? Anyway, it's indicating how the negotiation bandwidth is.

If $6 can be reached, i will try to kick myself -- i paid much more at Farnell Germany just to make sure i stil get some.
That's life.
