201-2 motor question
Hello all,
I am in the process of restoring a 1938 201-2 in original #65 cabinet. Because the motor needs rewiring and all is going well. There is a fiber washer on the armature shaft, or should be, but it's not there. Does anyone know of a source or the dimensions of this washer, in particular the washer thickness and I will try to fabricate one. Thanks for any help.

Is it stuck to the bearing? Down near the bottom there.

Elusive fiber washer
Thanks for the responses, but, its not there. Look at the pic of housing screws. Someone had previously taken this machine down and a nickel to a doughnut, lost that washer. All the screws on the motor were very easy to remove and considering this machine has not been used for 25+ years, the screws should have given me a harder time to remove them. I don't know exactly what the purpose of that shim does, but before disassembly, the motor ran fine after a lube and oil change. Except for the washer, the motor is completely rewired and it fires up nicely. I can make the washer and will guestimate the thickness.
