A minor caution: high-power, noisy motors that have carbon brushes and that
are intended to run for short periods of time (blenders, electric drills,
vacuum cleaners) seem to be a slightly different animal, for some reason.
I've been able to change the carbon brushes on those, but for some reason
the bearings and lubrication seem to be trickier (perhaps because of the
torques and vibrations to which they are exposed?).
