   A lot of those motors had the air flow over the commutator, and

would use it till the bag was full, and ripped.  I wasn't working
on the vacuums, just the motors so the only parts I saw were new
bushes &
bearings.  A neighbor was in the used vacuum cleaner business and
would give me half a van load of bad motors at a time, then buy
back any that I fixed.

That sounds like a nice little earner.  ;-)

   $10 to $20 for common motors, and $50 for Rainbow/Rexaire.  He
   would stop by in a panic, telling me what he needed.  I'd tell him
   to give me an hour to dig through my good motors and would try to
   find one.  Then i would dig out what he needed, and fix it.  A lot
   had dmagaed fans from metal or glass being picked up, so it was a
   five minute job to remove them and a set of good ones from a burnt
   out motor, polish the armature and put it all together.  then the
   scrap metal went into bins for the scrapyard.  I got really good
   with a wood chisel & various punches to remove the copper from the
   old motors.  The segments were easy to remove, with a pipe wrench.
   Clamp the armature in a vise, and give a twist with the wrench.  it
   was kind of like taking corn off a cob. ;-)

   Sometimes I would strip 100 bad motors at a time, for the good
   parts just to make room.

A very profitable exercise nowadays with the price of copper being so
high.  I just wish the thieves would stop stealing the iron grates and
aluminum road signs.  A whole load of them have vanished overnight.
Not to mention the theft of copper wiring from the railway system.

Next door neighbor came round today and asked if I knew that water from
the kitchen sink was pouring out of the wall and onto the yard !!!  The
swine had pinched the two meters of lead drain pipe between the wall
and grate,

They are destroying central air condition equipment around here, for
the couple dollars worth of copper tubing. Some businesses were hit
twice within weeks. Their insurance only covered it once. Some of the
thefts were from non profits that had no coverage and had to do without
it in Central Florida. :(

The problem is pretty easy to solve, given that the legislators *want* to
solve it. That they haven't tells us a lot.

Yeah, like all of a sudden Obama gives a shit about our military
losing their homes while serving overseas, but it wasn't important
before time to run for re-election.

"the return of military veterans facing significant challenges
reintegrating into their communities could lead to the potential
emergence of terrorist groups or lone wolf extremists capable of
carrying out violent attacks"

Now the same party is doing a 180° turn?
