I am 100% shadetree and that NEVER stops me from starting a new project. I have a FSM, a bunch of tools, and a place to work. I make mistakes, and have to learn new things as I go, and it usually takes longer than it would most people. But that is how I learn.
So if you have an FSM, good tools, and most importantly: TIME to sit down and do the project right than shadetree or not it doesn't matter.

I say take apart the motor and fix the problem.

Sorry for the O.T. rant.
