Right, so this is what i want to make
1. a microswitch is pushed
2. a motor starts spinning
Whilst the motor is spinning, if the 2nd microswitch is pushed, then the next motor starts.
3. When motor 1 stops spinning the motor will continue for the time it should, then when finished the whole circuit idles (nothing happens)

What i thought was have a 555 timer and wire a relay to cope with the first motor. Then wired with the motor is a 2nd 555 timer circuit, with the output being another motor.

Ill try to attach a diagram, but i dont know if it will work

At the moment, the motor comes on but the 2nd 555 circuit does not operate.

So any suggestions (Please remember im a beginner )

You don't have a signal conditioner on the first 555. As long as that switch is pushed the timer will continue to be high, even after timeout.

555 Monostable

This article includes a theory of operation and an explanation why the input conditioner is needed.
