Please advise on small stepper motor and controller

[Cindy18]

Hi everyone,

Some of you may have seen Elf's amazing device and my repurposed marine lamp holder designed to achieve a similar effect.

But I need a little help, or hopefully you can point me in the right direction, regarding an electromechanical component that I think would be really nice, namely a small motor and controller to rotate the needle that the sample will be mounted on.

May I ask if anyone has done this before? If so, what are some issues/pitfalls I need to be aware of?

I think I need a stepper motor (https://www.oyostepper.com/) and a very basic controller for either clockwise or counter-clockwise rotation, does that sound right? I guess there's no way to disassemble a no longer loved children's remote control toy to achieve this, and add a potentiometer to slow down the speed of what would normally be a wheel motor?

Thanks so much for your help!
