A small group of CSc students are busy putting together some basic robot 
pieces which will hopefully merge into a moving robot by mid May.

However, there are a few things that are causeing us a little confusion,
namely where and how to interface gears to our stepper motors. Does 
anyone know of any low tech method of either hooking up a differential or
locating some semi-assembled gears (from the smooth, frictionless shaft 
all the way to the nice traction giving tires) for students on a extremely
limited budget ?
 
thanks in advance.
.
BTW: I would like to recommend a book that has been a great help as of late
 called >The Robot Builders Bonanza: 99 inexpensive robotics projects<
by Gordon Mccomb, Tab books, 1987. Extremly well written.
