Makita LS1216L keeps blowing breaker

Any clue as to what is causing my saw to keep popping the breaker? Was working fine and then it started popping the breaker every time I would turn it on.

Tried every 20amp breaker in the unit
Used multiple extension cords
No apparent shorts in the wiring around switch
Brush looks like it’s still good

Was using it on a 15 amp breaker without an extension cord for half the day and then the problem started

First project!

Pretty excited, I just finished a half frame bag for my bike. It’s the first time I’ve touched a sewing machine in over fifteen years, and I went in with no formal plans. Cotton exterior and then the whole bag is lined with some sort of water resistant looking material (just bought stuff at hobby lobby), ratchet strap cut up for the cord loops, and some elastic straps inside to hold gear in place.
