1. Starting groove in mica with 3 cornered file
2. Undercutting mica with piece of hacksaw blade
3. Segments
4. Mica
NOTES
See Figure 5-19. If an undercutting machine is not avail-
able, undercutting can be done satisfactorily using a thin
hacksaw blade. After undercutting, lightly sand the com-
mutator with crocus cloth to remove any burrs.
See Figure 5-19. Mica must not be left with a thin edge
next to segments. Mica must be cut away clean between
segments.
