Hello,
I got this item years ago for a project what never happened ;-). I payed 200€ and got 50€ rebate because the item was so bad packed that it came with a bent timing belt pulley (see picture).
Fine fokus turns smooth but the timing belt pulley is wobbling. This should easily be fixed or replaced. I have no clue about the wiring of the stepper motor but this should also be easy to find out.
I am asking 100.-€ plus shipping.
regards
Lothar

Re: motorized Nikon Focus Block
For anyone who is OK with the bit of wobble Lothar mentioned, this is a wonderful item and a super deal. I use the same part from the same vendor Lothar bought his from in the Bratcam. That post contains a parts list for one way of integrating it into a macro rig.
Figuring out the existing motor would not be difficult. However, one can also order a NEMA 17 motor from Cognisys, already terminated to work with their StackShot controller. Replacing the motor is just the matter of a few easily accessible screws.
