Back on topic, artoo, I just checked the dimensions on the box, and the normal surprise box is about a 100mm cube ID, and it was packed pretty much solid.
@ artoodeeto: You have too much time on your hands. :D
LOL! I shoulda seen that coming :DQuote:

yeah, I don't know if you saw in I think one of my earlier posts, I found it on www.bricklink.com but the sellers there are charging about $20 a pop, which is a bit much, especially when I can slightly mod a regular DC motor and spend under $10 for 2 or 3 of them.Quote:

Here's the motor I just ordered, thanks X88X for the link to the site! Got their mid-size "surprise" box too, should be all kinds of goodies in there. The motor has 2 shafts, is nice and big so should be a good visual element, and at 1.5V spins at 19rpm, which is right in the range I was looking for. Plus, I only needed to get 1 since it has 2 shafts. :up:

So my girlfriend says I'm too wordy in my posts. Here's my attempt to not be:
My stuff arrived. Yay. I'm excited. Can you tell? :D
Thanks to X88X for telling me about Electronic Goldmine!
First the legos. 331 tread pieces. 50 gear wheels. Several axles. Hope it's enough.
And the Electronic Goldmine stuff. The motor - 19rpm @ 1.5VDC, dual shafts plus what I think is a 3rd one perpendicular to the other two. Took the photo while holding it to show scale:
Majorly big box o' goodies. :D LOTS of capacitors, chips, all sorts of random wonderfulness!
