Are these any use? (probably not to me with my electronics skills)
would anyone use them as is or would you salvage parts from them?</description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Mine are all 1/4" shafts too. Fortunately there are plenty of GT2 pulleys with 1/4" ID on aliexpress. I got the ones for 9mm belt, but messed up the order and got 6mm belt to go with them. *sigh* I could do with some Zzzz bed right now...]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I'll say :) The whole lot cost me £90 The other Pacific Scientific motors a little smaller but bigger than a 17, had a 6.35 shaft so got a coupler for 8mm, as the leads that came with it where too short and wrong dims. I'll use this for another Z bed...not Zzzz Bed ahhh]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I was hoping when I do use it for it to lift a table seems the most logical place for it, even though at the top of Godzilla there is a mount for it pointing down, I was thinking of leaving it up there as a weight to keep the column static instead of screwing to a base...but  better to put it to use if I can.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ If it really has 1 Ohm coils you'll be able to drive it easily as that is only 3V at 3A. Well, easily from a volts perspective, getting 3A out of pololu's is a bit more of a problem, but hopefully you won't need to drive it that hard. Mine are a mix, but one is about 8 Ohm which presents me with more of a challenge :)]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Cheers James, I've ordered extra DB15's so I can leave the plug as is, I dont know when i'll get round to using this due to the voltage, which I thought was 24v but just had a look and it doesnt stipulate. someone's scribled 2.71 on the steps label, I wonder if that was their target for amps?]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I have some vexta steppers too, they came off a silicon wafer handling machine, so I assume they are top quality. I think they predated the nema standard, so just make mounts to match. Two of the wires are center taps, just use a meter to figure out which wires go with which coils and ignore the centers.]]></description>

It has 6 wires 4 wires going to a DB15 and 2 other wires with ferrules on them, do they need to be used?<br />
I thought this was a nema 23, but just seen some 23's and they looked smaller?<br/>]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Yeah these look like before the tiny driver, old school, very clean though, look like new, pity to not use them for something.<br />
<br />
But reading this at the bottom of one of the pages <br />
"Once you've got your hardware connected and tested, you will need to program your own particular application. A variety of additional documentation and source code programming examples are available in both Basic and C."<br />
means they are probably better in pieces as I have no controller or SW writing ability:(<br />
<br />
The plates &amp; connectors might come in handy. Anyone else need them as is?]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ Yes, these are, in fact, PIC-STEP boards which are still sold by JEFFREY KERR, LLC (although I'm not actually running the company myself anymore).  They are functional, but pretty dated in their capabilities (only full/half stepping).  They are still being used by companies that designed them into products years ago, but there are better and cheaper alternatives today.<br />
<br />
And JamesK is right - the more modern PIC-SERVO controllers used in the PIC-SERVO boards are what I based the Servolulu controllers on.]]></description>
