Does anyone know if there is a site or database out there that can point users in the right direction when scavenging parts? For example, I got two printers, and a flatbed scanner for $20 from a recycle store thinking I was going to get some stepper motors out of them only to find the two printers each had 2 DC motors in them and the stepper in the scanner is 5 wire unipolar and not bipolar. It would be great to know what models to look for when finding something at a garage sale or recylce store. If not I might have to start one.....
