    Kim Controls, anyone ever order there?

    I was wondering if anyone had done business with [url]http://kimcontrols.com/[/url before and how satisfied you were with them. Just would like to know some others opinons before I spend a bunch of money there.
    Thanks

    looked at the site and clicked a few links

    The only thing I can say is "EXPENSIVE"

    I too thought the Powermax II were reasonably priced there. Plus, I couldn't find another online source that had 'em. But, I got mine from Ebay.

    thanks for the links stevie. Do you, or does anyone else know a better place to get pacific scientific powermax II steppers? Unless I can get permission to use surplus motors for the project, i'll need to find some new ones, and pacific scientific would be ideal.
    Thanks
