Default Busted jigsaw motor - fixable?

Needs rewinding, probably not worth doing just get another one.
The reason why it happened in the first place might be nice to know for
future proofing the new one!

My jigsaw started sparking and throwing out smoke, so I took it to bits,
found a shorted coil in the motor, and disconnected it. But it's still
doing this (sew video). Is there anything that can be done, or does it go
in the bucket?
