I'm trying to figure out how to attach a small sprocket to a stepper motor. I would like for it to be a pretty solid connection rather than jerry rigged... I haven't worked with motors before so I wasn't sure if mine had a standard sized pin that could be interfaced easily. I've attached a simple diagram that I made of it.
I may use a sprocket I find online, or if I can't find anything I should be able to have it cut along with some other things I'm having cut, but that doesn't really solve my problem completely because I still need something that will fit snugly, hold a few pounds and stick out enough to clear the enclosure and the bolt heads fixing the stepper in place. The laser cutter I'm using will only do thin material, I assume.
Anyway, I'm looking for any sort of guidance or suggestions... Thanks
