    Well oh well The plot thickens.... You may be able to JB weld that piece. The bolt goes into the body of the gear box. So not much strain on that ear. I believe it is cast metal. And is not hardned. Like the gears. I'd try it, over 300.00 for a gear box. That's steep. That is the power of...

    Just got my first wringer washer, and it needs a little work so I need some help

    There's always one bolt In every project. I was thinking heat also. I would think the gears are hardnend steel. Will a Dremel blade cut that? And in the past my experience , in the instructons it sounds so easy. In actual life it's anything but. Yea on the parts. Concentrate on something...

    Just got my first wringer washer, and it needs a little work so I need some help

    In your video I noticed movement after you pushed in the shifting rod. I wondered why it did that. I certainly am no expert but it may be the damage you have on the gears. I noticed (for lack of better word) a grinding when you pushed in the shaft. Mine does that sometimes. And I'd bet that...

    Great job Now the cleaning really starts. Don't know if you caught it but 1 of the bolts are longer. And has to be used in the same hole. Why? Can't rember. Off to work on boat wiring. Getting warm and the lake is calling.

    Spinners The mega is a durable plastic outside. And inside. So no rusting. And yes the older laundry alt. spinners were POS. But this one seems quite durable. And I've used it since Christmas with no problems. 20lbs wet is what is listed as the max weight. I know of one other member here...

    Why adjust the height You want the wringer to be at a safe comfortable height to use it. Pinkies to tall for me (all 4ft 10in.of me) Whitey we lowered, wringer is about chest height. Just right. I feel like I'm lifting fabric over my head when I use pinky, she's about 3-4 inches taller. So I...

    Whoo Hoo I'm so glad the bolts came out. Now the lovely job of cleaning everything, and paint. You have quite a weekend ahead of you. I have another suggestion. Adjust the height of the machine before you get it reassembled. I'm sure your going to clean the wheels, Tipping the machine...
