Thanks I will leave that as is. 

Regarding the Santa Fe armature with the wire that needs to be soldered to the commutator,  I'm finding that the wire is too short.  Can't be pulled up far enough to the commutator without fear of snapping it.  Am I out of luck on this?  I fear my limited skills have reached their limit! A picture I took trying to show where the wire ends.
