How to Get Cheap Motors
Bring a kid that can't have a job or just not having a lot of money is hard so I am always looking to save money. I like going to the arc or goodwill to save money.
Shopping
Whenever I go to a second hand store I always look for things like 99 cent cassette player or the cheap VCR rewinders or even for a little more money dvd or cd players.
Tearing It Apart
There are many useful things in all the items listed previously. The things I have found are: motors, gears, wires, circuit boards, LCDs, LEDs, and switches.
Shopping Again
You can also find many rc cars although a lot of times they do not have their remotes. But they can still be very useful.
Tearing It Apart Again
When you get into the car their are usually many useful things. Although on occasion somebody has already taken parts from it. The things I have found are: gearboxes, wheels, motors, circuit boards, wires, and gears.
Be Creative
There are many other things you could salvage parts from. I've gotten fans, a walking toy dinosaur, and a walking dog.
