199€ 3D printer challenge – stepper motors arrived

The parts sourcing for the 3D printer challenge is almost complete – the stepper motors arrived today! In fact I ordered A batch from China two weeks ago but they have not yet arrived – so I checked the prices from Watterott and they were really reasonable. Only downside is postage which is usually free when ordering from China.

I was pleasantly surprised to find put that the motors have a D-shaft and are the same Pololu steppers sold elsewhere with a much higher price tag.

Price: 13€ a piece
