LOL Fabulous, simply fabulous. My Flair and I thank you for the procurement.

Using them right now Thanks Ben. Am doing a load in them right now, having the day off from work. Thanks for the kind words. Mike

Harvest Gold Kenmore Set Hi, I know someone who may be interested, if I can convince him to spend the money for shipping on the Gold Kenmores with the control panel covers. If you can get pictures, that may help me convince him. I understand with your new position you are very busy, so no...

Thanks!!!! Thank you for the compliments Jon, Rick and "Frontaloadotomy." This is my favorite set, as it is like the set my parents bought for our first house. I left the washer in perfect operating condition at age 18 with some folks who looked after me while I was finishing high school. It...

Back at work I moved the dryer back into position and did a test run. It was not operating correctly. I traced the problem to a loose wire at the main contact block and it also required some minor position adjustment to the "Compensated Control" temperature sensors at the front of the dryer...

Finishing up I then remounted the unit back into the dryer. The inside of my dryer must have seen some water at some point, as it was very rusty (maybe a basement/house flood). I cleaned it all and installed new vent tubing, as the original was a rusted shell with large holes. I painted the...

Second string After the first string, do the next. I then evened out any coil spacing issues and secured the coil ends to their connectors and reinstalled the insulators. The GE coil kit came with new connectors, nuts and washers. You can also see the thermostat for high temp shut off loctated...

Re String Element I then did the first heating element. You have to stretch the heating element to the specified length (it is stamped on the instructions of the packaging) for the inner and outer loop. When stretching the element, you have to keep the coil spacing even, to ensure the heating...

Re-String GE still makes the supports and the insulators, as well as the heating element. I bought enough to do this dryer and an extra set for spare parts, as I have two other GE electric dryers. You can buy the parts from GE on their parts website. Delivery was quick, about 3 days. First...

Heating Element I had to take the drum out. To do this, you must remove the front panel of the dryer. You must also remove the bearing snapring at the rear of the drum. Never take the four bearing support bolts out, as it will be almost impossible to put back together using that method. Once I...

Just wanted to share some photos of restoring my GE V12 dryer. A big thanks to Sharples who rescued this dryer and for being kind enough to sell it to me. Also a major credit goes to Jimmy "Filter Flo" who provided over the phone assistance and a present in the form of the related GE dryer...

See the other thread Hi, I posted pictures with names the day before Charles posted his pictures. You can reference the names there. Look under thread 14322, Wash in scheduled. Mike

Seeburg's Hi Kevin, Thanks for the compliments. My 222 was my first collectible purchase back in 1991. I mechanically/electronically restored it. The cosmetics are original so far. It never fails to play. The DS was a parts machine I brought back to life. The SMC 2 is one of a few, and the...

Wash-in Good day Charles, I am glad you had a nice time. At the next one we will be sure to save something to demo in the mini-wash baskets. Thank you for taking to post all the pictures and for the compliments. Mike

Laundry all fluffed and folded Parting shot with all the laundry finished. I had a great time. It was nice to meet Matthew, Al and Charles and a pre-holiday treat to visit with Scott, Kevin and Rich. Sanford did not have to disrobe this time, as there was so much to wash! See you all in...
