All Henrys deserve to live! Glad you've rescued him and gave him a new lease of life. I myself rescued one that was barely a year old today, albeit not from a dustbin, but from being parted out as a "spares" Henry on my local "freebay" group. All he needed was a new switch, which was easy to get online.

Ebay is good for motors even second hand ones tend to be good

Someone once asked me if I was ever caught bin hoking & I said no I certainly was not. They said you must have been good at it then. 😢

On low power the motor sounds intermittent but maybe just a bit of serious use will bed in the brushes and clean the commutator, maybe, there's only one way to find out, cheers

I have been running this one as my shed machine for a month or two since I recorded the video. It seems to have bedded in. No smoke or noises. Patience pays off

Its a more modern Henry. I would basically buy a new motor the same has the current one, buy a new filter, clean it up and sell it on. This was the last Henry to have the high/low switch on. I always thought they were the better ones. Good video 👍🏽

I bought a new motor for mine about 20 years ago, I think I still have it somewhere, basically indestructible!

Well you didn't take long to get it working again :-D Maybe it is a lower wattage motor. I would have used a bit of 3000 grade sand paper to buff up the commutator, a bad connection will lose power and could arc more than normal. But that's just my way. The carbon rods look like they have plenty of material on them :-D I'm amazed that the windings are still in good condition.

Is the motor dust cover on enough, it sounds like something is rubbing. Great video as always

Wow, that sure was clogged up. Appreciate you going into detail with the dismantling and motor cleaning. BTW, do people ever object to you going through their bins? Do the authorities mind? (I don't know where you live, I guess some places are more accepting than others).

The authorities don't mind as long as you don't make a mess.

30 pounds for a complete motor expensive? Here in the Netherlands they are asking around €150 till 200 for a new HVR-200 motor

@bootsowen 10 ай бұрын

A new Henry costs £120 on special in a supermarket. Fancier models cost more. As you can tell, I don’t pay for these machines or if I do it is at a car boot sale or flea market and my price limit would be £10 for a promised working machine. So €150 is a bit much!

@Paultje118 10 ай бұрын

@@bootsowen i also don't pay that much. I will remove the motor and use the parts as spares. Here a new Henry Next will be around €240 till €275,-. The prices here are way more then in the UK. I am also looking for ways to harvest and find Henrys for my DIY projects.

@bootsowen 10 ай бұрын

It is the same for me. I have some spares saved, but motors seem to be the issue on well used machines and I have never had success refurbishing the motors or adding new brushes, usually when the brushes have failed the commutator ring and rotor also has damage. Time and patience are the most factors when waiting for free stuff!
