The 1938 Detrola. I need to put the tuning eye in...

The Majestic tube radio. I took this apart and completely restored it inside and out.

Since you asked... Here's another shot of Molly...

Thank you Ben! Guess I'll have to make that cake now, won't I? :)

Thanks! They have been in the room for a while now, but I just got around to putting the videos on YouTube.

Here's Fred and Ethel all snuggled and happy working away in the laundry room. I finally got around to making a YouTube channel...

I found it on a website I follow; it's not for sale. I would love to play around with one of those though and watch it run. Too cute!!!

I'm glad I could inspire you, Hydralique! Can you believe how quiet that thing is??? It still blows my mind every time I use it.

That person is either delusional or has a very strange sense of humor.

Holy cow! I have never heard of this!!! I guess you could fit a couple coffee cups in there... Anyone ever seen one of these? http://retrorenovation.com/2014/07/02/1950s-ling-temco-nos-eye-level-automatic-dishwasher/

I worked for General Motors for 7 years. My first car was a 1994 Grand Prix GTP. It's been great. My mom still drives it and it has 240,000 miles on it. I bought a brand new 2002 WS6 Trans Am off of the car hauler. Literally off the hauler. That car had over 50 warranty claims on it when I...

I'm going to make a red, white and blue layer cake for the 4th of July. :)

It's nothing special with the armature. I just use the drill to spin it while I hold sandpaper or a coarse Scotchbrite pad against it. The drill is just a cheat that makes it much easier easier and quicker. Just sand until it's clean and shiny and most of the wear grooves are out. You most...

Although it's in really good shape, I'm going to polish her up because I apparently have OCD and can't leave anything alone. :)

Drew... Glitter!!! I didn't think of that!! I should just turn it into a Hello Kitty version while I'm at it. LOL! Actually, I did think about painting the Sunbeam script on the front black. I worried it might be too much, though. It would be hard to undo if I didn't like it. Should I paint it...

Nate That is a water transfer decal from Nelsonezy.com. You have to clear coat over it after you apply it or it will come back off when it gets wet. That's the only place I have found the Mixmaster Junior decal. I wish it were a vinyl decal, but I looked at the one on my chrome Junior and it...

Thanks!! I soaked the gear head in paint thinner for 24 hours and then blew it all completely out with an air compressor. I replaced it with high temp grease. The gasket still seemed in good shape, so I left it alone.

I picked this model D31X up off of eBay; Drew immediately named her Monica. It's in great shape; it looks like it's lead a lightly used and well cared for life. It even had the accessory pamphlet inside it along with the package of filter cones. I picked up a belt, a medipure cone and new motor...

Here she is!!! All dolled up and ready to go another 61 years. I love how the pink and black looks together. 

Time for a little letter painting. I used white appliance paint and painted over the letters. After they were dry I used acetone and q-tips to remove it. I painted the Sunbeam just for fun.
