My only comment in your fine description would be to make sure the mica separators are below the copper segments for proper action.
I use a piece of hack saw blade to undercut the mica (carefully) and then polish the copper again to get rid of the slight burr that occurs when under cutting.

good point, as in the commutator is worn down i take it. i really did not look that close at that. you can see it better in the before pic of it if that helps.
