Where can i get gears that I can use with the stepper motor i got
from parallax?
Or, where can i get gears for any dc motor in general?
Any recommendations?

dollars a piece, maybe even $10 or $20 (and that's just for plastic). My
favorite suppliers of gears are listed below. The Science Source sells some
very nice (very cheap) small plastic gears in 2:1 and 3:1 ratios. And despite
what the website says, you can drill out the hubs to 1/4" [noparse];)[/noparse]

drilled larger). Also support your local hobby shop and give them a try,
most have replacement gears for servos and cars. Make a CNC mill from your
stepper motors and mill your own! : )

several gears, motors, shafts, belts and hardware in each for the taking.
Also vcr's are loaded with gears. If you are into scrounging for parts,
maybe you can find what you need in these.

Check out Jameco (~$.69/gear) and the other surplus electronic/robot
stores. Just look up the specs on your motor shaft size (most can be
drilled larger). Also support your local hobby shop and give them a try,
most have replacement gears for servos and cars. Make a CNC mill from your
stepper motors and mill your own! : )
