I’m looking to buy a used (functional) or new z axis motor and cable. Anybody have a spare they can part with for a nominal fee? direct message me. ---

I don’t have any originals left, but I have the tools to make one if you can’t find one any other way. It might not be as pretty, but it should work. ---

a self made cable would be fine. I need the motor too. I have one of the high speed motors that uses a different cable and I think the encoder is broken so I probably could rewire the cable I have with a different connector. ---

In the new design I’ve been working on I’m using a stepper motor for the z-axis so I don’t have any of the original ones at this point, is the cable still useful without a motor to go with it? ---

When I find a motor, I’ll need that matching cable. ---
