Brushes for an AHM Trolley Motor

Bruce asks:

“I am searching for brushes for an AHM trolley motor. The originals burned – sizes are 2mm x 3mm and a guess of about 5mm or 6mm long, and of course, with springs. I searched eBay, googled the world…but cannot find any sources. The question: does anyone know where I can find some? Thanks in advance for your help.”

  • Frank B says:

    I don’t know if you can buy the carbon brush material in shops to scratch build, but it may be possible to make them by filing down a bigger motor brush.
