I'm creating a project involving a 24 hour time, with a relay connected to a smaller 555 timer set to a time of 3 seconds.

i just found out my teacher is not going to allow me to do my project through the parallel port and i need to design a circuit for the stepper motor. There was a circuit in one of the booklets he gave out so i'm probably just going to use that, thanks for the help, i might come back for some help later though because this is really confusing for me.

I'm making a project that involves a single axis stepper motor moving about 10-30º in one direction and then back in no more than 30 seconds (i have a 555 timer circuit maxed out at 3 seconds). I'm not that smart with electronics and i need to find a way to program this stepper motor through the parallel port of a computer. From what i can see i need to create a circuit that connects the stepper motor up to the parallel port, does anyone know where i can find one of these or help me make one? (preferably without IC chips haha, they're a pain in the ass to put in circuits) Thanks
