Hey Russ - nice work on the tach addition.

Any update since you got the brushes seated properly on the commutator? Did speed improve at all? Will you be able to use it to go to work like you thought?

The only other things I'd add are gauges for volts/amps. Don't want to kill your batteries.

Best wishes for the upcoming wedding, too.
