Pretty much all the US detergents were sold in Canada back in the day, many still are. What was the one that had a free towel in the box... was it FAB, I'm thinking it was something else though?

Easy It looks to say Spiralator 500 on the control panel.

Tom; might also be that they used oven cleaner and destroyed that coating which apparently these continuous cleaners had.

That will be a great addition. It's been maybe 25 years since I last visited GF village and the Henry Ford when my UK relatives were over. They loved it and the museum. Also want to go downtown and ride the new streetcars and see the newly renovated old Michigan Central station.

So much competition in the plastic food container business. Every store you go in has oodles of different makes and brands for less. May not be as good and maybe less expensive but price sells a lot more these days I think

I was thinking as well that there was a garage or carport on the left side that has been made into a room. It's the only room with ceiling tiles.

Okay, thanks Jerome.

Perc basket flat filter disks are available with a hole for the stem to go thru. My folks had and I still have their GE pot belly perk. They got it when I was a tyke, so probably in the late 50s or early 60s

Jerome I'm interested because you say you are blind or blind to some degree how are you able to see whether your clothes are clean, or more clean using one machine versus another? I have great vision knock on wood, and can see variations sometimes. Consumer Reports uses color spectrometers to...

You can't smell botulism, you can't see it, or taste it. I canned stuff in a boiling waterbath for 30 years or more and never took any chances. Everything was sterilized in boiling water and once out of the water untouched by my hands. Not into it anymore. However if have excess sauce like...

Those vacs look more like Fantoms to me, which were designed by Dyson when he worked at Fantom, before he started Dyson. ? A friend of mine had an Amway wireless intercom in their house back in the 80s. The main console was wood and not bad looking.

I think a cup as to the makers definition is something like 6 ounces which is more akin to a "tea cup" since that's what most people drank coffee from back in the day before coffee mugs took off in the 60s.

Yikes No way would I eat it. Bolognese and all tomato based sauces with meat, veggies etc requires pressure canning. Not even water bath canning is sufficient for low acid foods which bolognese is. There is so much room for error no recognized health authority recommends oven canning.

Most of the newer and or refurbished stores here now have doors on all or most of the refrigerated cases. The open top island bunkers seem to be fazing out as well. The smaller footprint store near us, built arounnd 1960, just did all his frozen foods with doors but the dairy wall is still open...

The box does have a HE logo on it. The included measuring cup has 5 graduation marks. It states 155* . The asterisk refers to 155 Medium size loads. A medium size load is shown as level 1. A large load is level 3 and a HE full size load is level 5. Oddly the pictograms for this show only a top...

Good. I don't have any full size office machines, just portables and some can be a bugger to tighten using your fingers and thumbs to hold it so it doesn't let go and snap back while simultaneously trying to get the drawband attached to the far end of the carriage. Sometimes a bloody endeavor LOL.

A couple of years ago I was buying some fries at a local food truck down by the river and I noticed they had hanging bottle wasp traps placed on it and around the perimeter. They were buzzing with yellow jackets and getting quite filled. I asked the woman what the liquid was and she told me it...

I was sort of blessed this summer I guess because I didn't have the annual influx of nasty yellow jackets buzzing around the front porch. For some reason they seem really attracted to me and I was forever jumping out of my chair and running in the house LOL.

Ours closed maybe 10 or so years ago. It had become not much more than a remote controlled toy, gizmo junk store with cellphones and only a few swinging racks of electronic parts. Everything ended up at Liquidation World and I picked up a couple of dozen of their Zip Zaps miniature remote...

I'm not familiar at all with Royal machines but a quick youtube look and it appears some of them can be tightened by a screw mechanism without removing the case or detaching the drawband. Wish all machines had this because if not you generally do have to remove the case and finger tighten it...
