Is any of these stepper motors use-able?

Im planning on building a wolfstrap.

[www.conrad.se]

Also, can I use any of the driver cards from there?

Why I am asking is because I dont wanna order from outside sweden. Ordering from this company would be great!

Google translate failed with all the frames, but it looks like you can get some motors that will work from there. I would avoid the electronics, as we have developed and accepted standards in Sanguinololu and RAMPS. Plus it looks like the controller boards they use are ARM based, while everything in the RepRap community is AVR based.

Summery:

NEMA 17 Bi-Polar Motors from there will be fine.
Controller/driver board is a crapshoot, with no support.

You can likely find the parts for the electronics locally, but you will have a hard time finding an assembled board. If you don't mind a short wait, I know that the guys in England have sources for everything we use.

RepRap is a worldwide project and Conrad is a german originated company.

That said, get something specified to NEMA17 or bigger, 6 volts or less, 1.5 amperes or more, 200 steps/rev or more. See also: [reprap.org]
