Why do you suppose Sears stopped with designing the consoles and went with the "Star Wars" panels? I am thinking maybe cost, but some other reason?

Might not clean all that well... But it is stylish! With a name like Continental how could you pass it up?

But how do you remove oily, greasy stains? Dry cleaning does an excellent job of removing such stains. I read somewhere that back in the early 1970s when Boeing built their Everett plant that there was in-house dry cleaning there. Back then, when engineers ran the company, they dressed sharp...

A little off on a tangent... One of the reasons Kodachrome film was discontinued was because the developing process was an environmental disaster. There must be other Kodak films that could be use that are just as or almost as good that are not so obnoxious to develop. Most photography is...

Bradford I will be glad to... Try this link, it's very informative Meanwhile, where is The Dry Cleaner, I was hoping he could tell us about his store and his equipment. I do believe a dry cleaner probably made a lot of money back in the 50s, with all the sharp dressers. Would they have had...

I was reading the thread about the do-it-yourself Westinghouse dry cleaning machine and what people were saying there and I was wondering if we will see dry cleaning in the near future. I have 1 good suit and it is about the only thing I own that needs dry cleaning. My dry cleaner who is a...

We had a coin operated dry cleaner.... There was an attendant there because the dry cleaning process would take over an hour and people would leave after putting the coins in. I just vaguely remember it, had to be around 1970 and the next year a Dunkin Donuts went in there that is still there...

You have to remember that these are 2 totally different dryers, the older one a Maytag manufactured by Maytag in Iowa and the newer Maytag made by Whirlpool today. Maybe the Whirlpool was the better design from the beginning. I doubt it will last very long anyway, the metal must be much thinner.

Maybe the lawyers have something to do with the TR... Could it be possible that SQ does not discontinue the TR because it would be admitting they made a mistake? And admitting a mistake could make them vulnerable to lawsuits? If they admit it, SQ could be liable for replacing thousands of TR...

Bradford... It sounds like you are eating healthy, but are you getting enough fiber? You seem to be rather cranky.

I heard about that Northstar engine... If you were driving in the desert (maybe Palm Springs) and it leaked coolant, the engine could still get you home and you would not be stranded. But if you used the car like a sensible person would do and maintained it like you were supposed to and never...

Short of taking it all apart... I have had success with using one of those narrow brushes used for cleaning refrigerator condenser coils and sticking it in between the 2 tubs and going up and down, using a gel dishwasher detergent. It also helps to aim a power washer between the 2 tubs. I...

Could you place the machine somewhere else? I guess I am kind of puzzled why you want to do this installation. If you have to protect the floor underneath the concrete slab with rubber, why are you placing on a finished floor? If you move, what will you do with the concrete slab which will be...

So will you get a front loader too? I have the LG and it has been reliable but the odor issue is there. Would a Speed Queen stink less?

I wish I was an industry troll.... Because if I had a degree in engineering and was able to do the advanced math I would have liked to have a career with (what is left of) Westinghouse. Unfortunately, I got scared of calculus by a child psychiatrist I was sent to. Yes, I was messed up enough...

Not all bad news... Finland just started their most powerful nuclear power plant, Okiluto 3, that puts out 1600 megawatts. I only say this to antagonize Bradfordwhite. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/europes-most-powerful-nuclear-reactor-125942008.html

Hopefully Germany will be wise And not start to take all their nuclear plants apart just yet. Isn't there a way to preserve the equipment so if need be the place can be restarted again?

I think it would look nice if you paint the dryer door handle black too. If I was doing this, that off white handle would annoy me.

Try one of those brushes you would use to clean the condenser of a refrigerator, I had success with using one of those. https://fuller.com/products/clothes-dryer-vent-brush?variant=35001567576222
