That is very therapeutic. Now someone has corroborated the problem I don't feel as stupid as I did. Of course that does not mean I am not stupid, I just don't feel as much like I am. I got a bit of a hiding trying to remove a worm from a classical Minitrix standard motor. Then came the brutalising procedure of putting it back on again, or even just repositioning it after pulling it off a little to get a better puller in place. The great attraction of the old Minitrix motors is, at least where solder is not involved, the brushes can be replaced with doctored Marklin drum commutator type brushes, and the commutator cleaned. Or to be more accurate, I t-h-in-k the Marklin brushes will do, have not finished trying it yet as the worm called a day on it. As it happened it was for a scratch-build and the motor was too hight by not much, but sometimes 'not much' is enough. I don't know how the motor would have gone in the remagnetiser?????????????????????? I greatly miss the motors that could be fully serviced. Found you by chance. Thanks; could talk all day; better shut-up.

Many thanks. Struggling to get the worm off the X04. Gavin, Scotland.

Thank you, this is super helpful.
Hugely helpful, thank you.
Lots of good tips. Thanks. BTW, 'worm' is pronounced 'werm'.
Ha ha, not in Dutch! 😉😁 I can't get myself to say it that way, feels weird.
We Scots say wurrum!
Great video
Mooie tip..!
