Doesn't say skill saw; says electric hand saw.

Maybe post pics of the brushes? I'm not sure if they are available specifically for that saw but sometimes others can be adapted or made of they aren't.

Hardware stores often have bins containing generic brushes in the drawers in the nut and bolt aisle.

Bring your old brushes in and match them up.

Hello.... The saw currently has no brushes inside the unit would be nice if it did. I'm trying to repurpose the saw and keep it out of the landfill. Would love to bring this old baby back to life.

This website:

Suggests that the part number is 2-730352-00

Searching for that number reveals a few different sources:

Hopefully one of those can get you the parts you need to get your saw up and running. Keep us updated!

I walk into my local hardware store and some geezer, older than Moses, walks over to a box of brushes and picks out a new one, before you can say jack ran up the hill.

And if they don't fit perfectly, take a file to it.
