Very good explanation. Thank you. I think I mentioned burning them in a outside wood fire makes retrieving the copper easier and also makes those little teeth simpler to get off the commutator, although I feel uncomfortable doing it that way. We are very lucky here in Australia as the scrapyard pays electric motor price, which is over a $1/ kg or 50c +/ lb as is! So I just take in untouched and clean the windings from the stator. Really appreciate the information that you provide with your videos.
May be a while. Those are on low priority on tear down list..There won't be as much copper as it looks. Mostly steel. I can't stand the thought of not getting the copper. Lol

Thanks Brad. Yeah I took your advice and burned them in my mini propane forge. Quick easy and much easier.
Awesome
I would like to see your totals from the bucket of these you had in part 1
