[ATM] Stepper Stuff

[Kevin MIchael Zabbo <chaosopher23@yahoo.com>]

The steppers I have are from old disk drives.  I have
a couple from the old TEAC 1/2 height 5.25's that have
some decent torque and work in 3.6 degree steps. 
That's 100 steps per revolution...  ok, that part's
easy.

I'm going to run the motor on a 8" f/6 Newt and
another on a 13.25" f/20-something Cass-variation. 
Equatorial, maximum magnification and stability is
desired, probably both forks with conical
right-ascension axles.

What's a good reduction for these motors so that they
don't go too fast when doing one step at a time?
