You can use a floppy motor with the floppy circuit if you can rig up a pulse generator (555 timer circuit). This will run slow and strong, and with the gearing you probably already have, smoothly. Should be much quieter than a geared DC motor. |

That's exactly what I have! A geared motor! I really like the Tape deck idea, but I don't really know how I'd set up either the floppy or the tape drive. any ideas on that....? Allroy |

Go with the tape player motor, floppy motors are stepper motors and require a driver. Just run down to the local good will store, they should have something with a tape deck. Later, dabone |

I cant help you with your motor problem , but all the jukeboxes in my town have one cd spinning at the top with 2 mirrors placed in that area to give the illusion. |
