When your motor brushes go bad, your tool will stop working. For most hobby woodworkers you might never need to change the brushes in your tools, but if you have something for long enough it's good to know how. This is the first time I've replaced the brushes in this 25-year-old router, but I only use it a couple times each year.

This is my new router model:
DeWalt 2HP Router: amzn.to/39HZYqz
If you're going to be doing a lot of heavy work or slab flattening, I'd recommend going with a 3HP model.
