I have a motor that would be about right for my lathe conversion, if
it didn't have a brake on the back. (a nice short motor is useful for
a Lathe X axis).

I am considering re-machining the rotor shaft and the end cover to
make it into a shorter motor without a brake.

The problem, clearly, will be that all the swarf will want to stick to
the magnet. My idea is to wrap it in masking tape and then duct tape,
do the machining, add another layer of duct-tape to immobilise any
remaining swarf, then cut it all off.

Does anyone have a better idea?

If you can't fix it, you don't own it.
