Hello Elvin1949
Over the years I've collected a piles and piles of stuff.
Bearings..(many sizes and mounts) Lots of shafts.. 1/4 to 2 in. PM dc motors... 1/3 to 1 hp. (brushes..bearings to support them).. universal joints (some pretty big) gear boxes.. inline, right angle most are 1-10.
a few small ac servos (I think they've been over looked by many here)
Gears.. pulleys..belts..
I've got wire.. connectors.. relays.. caps .. rectifiers..
angle iron.. a nice selection of aluminum... lots of hardware (too much of it is stainless)
Ac motors.. controls for some of the dc motors..
ah... {that's enough for now..}
I have some common hand tools..(yeah, power too)
a few minutes away.. a mill.. lathe.. tig welders...
So.. anyways.. what I haven't is a pile of $$$$
Well.. tell you the truth, I did have a "little one".. but during his last visit my 5 year old grandson explained to me that I had too much "stuff".
So .. I made him a bank out of a plastic jelly jar. and we both had a good time.
But thanks for the suggestion!
