There IS a 10x20 storage shed full of old printers, (epson dot matrix, epson
LASER, PCs, etc...) soon to be on their way to landfill or parts heaven,
depending on my patience when I get to them...  I've thought a lot about the
steppers and such in them as well... if they are low voltage DC... there are a

    important tip: never throw anything away. dismantle it first and you
will always be able to find space for it.

So if I totally dismantle my 1948 Pontiac it will fit into the shed like the
shed was originally rented for? :)
