Where do you get gears, pulleys, belts, etc?
DaOld Man:
For my rotating monitor project, I will need some sort of a drive, (chain, belt, gears).
I havent decided yet what i am going to use. I am studying the projects on this board.
I was wondering where is a good place to buy such things as sprockets and chains, pulleys and belts?
It would be nice if it was a walk in store so I could see the real thing before I buy.
(I have got many fresh ideas from just window shopping).
Thanks.

Check out Grainger.com. I was directed here by Edge a while back. I used to have the pages with the gears and belts bookmarked, but the URLS have since changed. I have not ordered from them, so I cannot comment on any of that personally.

Also check out SDPSI. I haven't ordered from them, but was impressed with their catalog (syncromesh cable pulleys, etc)

Would be my first reccomendation too. We order from them about once a week here at work, and the service has been great.
I would also recommend Grainger, and you may want to look and see if they have a location local to you. We order from them at work also, mostly when we need to be able to pick up the part today.
