MEW article on coupling a stepper motor to a Vertex Rotary Table

I am currently having problems in sourcing a couple of Mom (On) Off (On) rocker switches required for the Arduino stepper motor project. Only available items appear to be located in the US. Is anyone aware of a possible UK source?

Are any of these suitable:

from CPC.

Is that the same as SPDT with centre OFF ?

DPDT available on eBay in various forms from several UK sources.

Yes, that looks just the ticket. Many thanks for the link

Have just checked out CPC for the SPDT switch Type 1818.1302 manufactured by Marquardt but they are only taking back orders. There seems to be a world wide shortage for this and many other items due to Covid issues.

Would something like this be suitable? It's a toggle switch rather than a rocker, probably more robust.

You could always use 2 push buttons instead

If those from Oven Mans link will do I have a couple you're welcome to, but they might be too big

Oven Man/Duncan - I think the physical size and current handling capacity of the units suggested are a bit OTT for the given application. I checked the Dims and was surprised to see just how big and 'meaty' in both senses they actually are.

In their place I have opted for the miniature version having the same Mom On-Off-On action, smaller current rating and fitting ia 6mm panel hole. Costs in each case are very reasonable.

Many thanks for all the help provided
