Default good info

Thanks for the good info..as with most things there's a lot of science and experience in this craft. I found some good info here too:

"http://martindaleco.com/HTML/MetalWorkingMicaSaws/Helpful_Hints_MicaSaws.htm"

Looks like the important factors are leaving a pocket so that the brushes ride smoothly over the commutator , the pockets are clean and that the commutator is as smooth as practical. Looks like 1/32- 1/16th is right on as you say.

Now to get it cleaned up... and ready to reassemble (and take some pix)
