But the whole thing is done with sleeve bearings, and then there's the "heatsink" that seems to be where there ought to be a bearing at the brush end of the armature. Not quite as bad as the ones that use the case as a bearing, but not an encouraging sign. Unplug, pop off the end cover & have a look.

Jun 3, 2015 at 14:37 comment added keshlam Cheap consumer Black & Decker/Sears saws are somewhat notorious for limited life span. If you can find a B&D repair center near you, they may be able to rebuild it for a reasonable fee... or may not. B&D does make some higher-end tools, bit of course they cost more.
