    Thank you everyone for your repplies. Based on the very useful information you provided, I'm giving it a shot. BTW, this is partly a repost of my last message from my previous thread, plus questions I need help with. The hole is on the side wall right at the bottom of the tub. I realize the...

    Is it worth patching a hole in plastic tub?

    More about the Calypso tub damage and planned repair Thank you for all your repplies. I'm thinking I'll give it a shot. The hole is on the side wall but right at the bottom of the tub so I realize the likelihood of success is lower so I'll compensate with redundancy/overkill. I did find a...

    ISO Help from 3-Belt Front-Loader Buffs!

    Argh, 1959-63 is a pretty early and short time-span so the odds of finding a front tub are rapidly approaching zero. I know later models have the fill hose on the other side and at least some have a hole below the boot for a bulb or something. I could live with that I think. Switching/modding...

    1963 Westinghouse Laundromat belt and bearings help please

    CORRECTION I was wrong with the seal dimensions above. The correct seal dimensions are: ID: 30 mm HT: 10 mm OD: 52-53 mm On the OD, the best seal probably depends on the state of your tub's bore. The best bet always is measuring the bore with a caliper once the old seal is removed. Also, if...
