What are your dream machines yet to be found?
The first monitor top...the GE OC-2.
A 1930s Dishwasher, preferably GE to match the rest of the appliances in the kitchen.
What are your earliest and favorite appliance memories?
Watching the brave little toaster and playing with my moms Hoover convertible.
Getting a free Kirby Omega to play with when I was a kid, my parents hated it.
What is the history of appliances you have owned?
Vacuums, fans, radios, record players, a jukebox, and of course refrigerators.
Have you ever worked on, repaired and/or restored any major appliances?
Yes, yes, and yes. Mainly rewiring and replacing gaskets on refrigerators. Ive also done more in depth work like stopping an oil leak on a hermetic meter miser compressor from a 1941 Frigidaire that works beautifully now.
