Pulled my non functional D&D apart. Brushes are stuck and the commutator definitely needs some machining. Has anyone had any luck with a cheaper set of brushes that might be compatible?  
There has to be another option out there that is less than $220 for brushes… After paying for the machining of the armature and buying brushes I’ll be more than half way to buying a new motor.
