Nice Find Hi Phil, Yep, I was amazed when I went to pick it up - and for only $35.00 too! The model number is: WC 6B. The serial number is 81EH 9450 so my guess is it's from the year 1981 but I don't know their numbering system well enough to be sure. Maybe someone here can answer that for...

Gentlemen, I have bought a 1-18 this morning. I saw it on Craigslist. Called and emailed the people yesterday mid-day and they got back to me - seems it is an apartment/rental house company that had this in one of the houses they just purchased and will be renting. They thought the machine...

Your new machine Hi Kic, So very nice of a find! You lucky devil. Is that a light I see inside the tub? And is that tub SS? Looks like it from your pics. Jim

80 in CT You're just lucky you can hang things out this early in the spring. It was 32 here this morning - still muddy and really wet too. At 3M (from all the plowing during the winter of all of the parking lots on their land) just north of I-94, you can still see two huge piles of snow, all...

Hoover Smalls At one time I owned a Hoover aluminium electric skillet. It had a nice high domed/squared lid, and a warming tray that slid out from underneath the heating elements. Not very deep, but enough height to hold bacon wile cooking pancakes. The sides of this tray fit into both of...

TSP Thank you stan - I'll look. The last time I was in an ACE hardware, I saw something like TSP but it wasn't the real deal. Some variant - maybe STPP - I'll check again. Jim

Clothes pins I remember my mom had some standard type clothes pins except for the part right above the two legs of the pin - there was a galvanized piece of wire that wrapped around the pin (and I think the ends were embeded into the wood on the inside of the slot) giving it more strength when...

TSP Hi all. I happen to still have a small amount of TSP (Tri-sodium Phosphate) from years ago. I have used it in the past as a way to etch old paint before I repainted as well as thrown a teaspoon in the washer once in a very great while when there was something really FUBARed - like axel...

That Speed Queen is still up for grabs guys.

washing veggies? Well that's very creative thinking Eric. And you're absolutely right. It would be like sort of a 1950s early version of a food processor on a restaurant scale. Actually when I first saw this on C/L, I had called the woman selling it and asked about that odd looking...

The Lady Turk Hello Mickey & John, Thanks for the info - I was in 11th grade in 1965. Where has the time gone?

LK Wringer OK - here goes: the model number on this machine is 6502900100. The Serial number is: 05079 C434 Jim

I've seen this Easy washer for sale on CL: [email protected] is the reply URL to the seller. http://minneapolis.craigslist.org/hnp/atq/2301643969.html is the URL to the ad. Very nice looking one for anyone who may be interested...

Fels Naptha Soap There is a wing of the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia called the Fels Planetarium. It was Mr. Fels soaps that paid for that fine addition to this museum. As a first grader, we went there by bus one morning and attended the show. I still to this day cannot get over the...

mickeyd - pictures Hi Mickey, Well, I posted them in my photos but I'm not sure if anyone can see them. I can't seem to find pictures of anyone else's photos in their profiles either. I'll shoot you one via regular e-mail.

Combo52 & Mickeyd - LKM Wringer Hi guys, Well, I was assuming 1979 was the year it was made from some of the numbers in the serial/model number. That's why I called the 800 number for Sears - well you can guess who answered - that's it! Manila. So after a very unproductive conversation...

Maytag Wringer Well, I've given up my search because I found something I feel is much nicer - take a look at my photos and you'll see what I mean. I've gone from wanting Red to Aquablue.

Lady Kenmore Aquablue appears from Milwaukee area Well men, (and women), I spent the whole day this past Friday driving to West Allis (just west of Milwaukee). It took 4.75 hours in snow, sleet and rain. A bit of a mess, but I've posted some shots of this really beautiful wringer from 1979 in...

I am giving away my Speed Queen Wringer Washer. If even for parts, the motor (a GE) is practically new - machine was never used by the original owner, she bought it as a backup for when her Maytag Wringer died but then she died before the Maytag and it got transferred to her neighbor who kept...

Hi. I'm looking for a Maytag Wringer Washer - I don't know the model number offhand but it was built in different model types I do know and for quite some time too. I'm looking for a white painted outside steel square aluminum tub one, whose cover is hinged and painted white over cast...
