Model Forum / Radio Controlled / Land Models / March 2004modified and stock comm lathes?
I'd like to get a comm lathe. But, what's the difference between modified and stock? Obviously the stock one is for stock motors and the mod one is for mods, but, what's wrong with having one lathe for both? I'd like to be able to cut bothe, on one lathe. Some stock motors aren't rebuildable, so the lathe is designed to use the brush hood as a guide. Get the mod lathe and buy rebuildable stock motors. It's all good.

Where is a good place to find how-to information on rebuilding motors? Ok, and how far can you grind the com down before you need to replace the arm? > Some stock motors aren't rebuildable, so the lathe is designed to use the > brush hood as a guide.

Until then you're fine - if you look at the end of the comm, you should be able to see how much copper is left. HTH, Jonny |
