Hey, The motor on my 1970 Halo Heat DE306 just crapped out last night. I'm pretty sure Dave (Volvoguy87) probably did it on purpose because he wants a dryer with a lighted display. :) It now just hums when you turn it on, and it's impossible to turn the wheel from it. Does anyone have a motor...

Dave opened the gas valves a bit more using the set screw, and it worked, so we now we can leave the gas line on. It's awfully gratifying to have the burners light when you turn the knobs. And speaking for Dave, the fans might come in handy this summer since we don't have air conditioning. We...

Hey, I have, most likely, a 1953 Magic Chef range. So far, Dave (Volvoguy87) and I have moved the gas line to the range, and hooked it up, and have been using it for cooking...but we can't get the burner pilots lit. There is a trickle of gas coming out of them, more on the left side than the...

Well, it predates me owning an automatic washer by less than a week. Wes

That is some sexy goodness right there.

That freezer...Oy! Sometimes size does matter.

It's a Frigidaire...but can anyone tell me what year? All I can say is, I don't want to buy any more appliances from anyone's basement. I have a feeling that if I want the good stuff though, I'll have to. Wes

I have been politely informed that indeed this, rather than a dial, would be the "money shot." Wes

I picked up this little beauty for $25. Right now, it doesn't agitate. Does anyone have a cutaway, or ghosted image, so I can see what the insides look like?

"Hal[l]o"wed be thy drying mechanism.

I don't know what one earth they washed in this tub...but I think it's dead now.

What we are not.

Full Frontal Goodness

I've got some pictures, more of the washer though, as the dryer is facing the other way in the barn at the moment, and I can't get in to take decent pictures. But for the washer...here's the money shot.

Hi everyone, I've been on this site for a couple of years, but I rarely post because...well, I didn't have any automatic washers. Well, last night I drove from Cincinnati, to Indianapolis and picked up a set of 1970 Maytag Center Dials. The washer is an A206, and the dryer is a DE306. Sure...

Hey, Moparwash, did you get that set? I saw them tonight, but it looks like a low end model? I wasn't sure I wanted to drive that far for a 108. But the harvest gold would look excellent with the old paint on the walls in the basement of my home. Wes

I have somewhere in the vicinity of 40 sewing machines ranging from the late 1870's through the mid 1950s, but my collection focus is 19th century machines that have Coffin tops, (pre drop head machines) sprinkled with a few industrial machines. There's also that collection of vintage bikes...

I emailed them today to see if they were still available. They may find a good home. :)

Hey Dave, Why didn't you send the range home with Steph? :) Also, Greg, your home is amazing! I wish I'd've known about it when I was living in Georgia. As to the, "Oh, how nice - you painted the place." - Comments like that, even though they don't respect the amount of work you've put it...
