    Hahaha. Yeah, it's awfully hard to beat a Super Surgilator.

    1978 Frigidaire Jet Cone Washer Commercial

    The 1-18 has better roll-over with less water, anyway. (It's a RollerMatic thang). I have stuffed a Kenmore Dual-Action set for high water level and it had good roll-over.

    Time to reinvigorate...

    Jon----- That's a nice collection you have! It does feel good to have them up and running. Sorry about the divorce. "Matters of the heart" are difficult.

    RCA Whirlpool Thread!

    1958 Timeline------- is in great mechanical shape. John Lefever gave it a good going over years ago. Problem is that damned timer! After tinkering with it on and off for years, I finally noticed in the "fine print" that the timer could not be worked on and that the whole unit had to be replaced...

    Mattresses

    Solid foam rubber----- always seemed to be the very best I ever slept on, but, I don't think anybody makes anything quite like that anymore unless custom made. Jamison was the last I remember. Most of the traditional American mattresses with springs come from the "three S'", Sealy,Serta, and...

    1940's Kenmore Model?

    Check the archives. Bolt-down Kenmores were plentiful, back in the day. Should be information out there. Last one I saw was at a friend's place in Tucson.

    Frigidaire Agi Tub

    They actually washed very well----- although you had to gauge how much bulk you put in. The roll-over was surprisingly good. The over-flow rinsing did a good job,too. When they were new I never paid them much mind as I thought they were kind of cheap and gadgety with the plastic tub. But, after...

    1/18 washer dryer set in coppertone

    Looks like they have seen some chemical spills in their day. Also, I wonder what that is on the bottom left edge of the cabinet? A clamp?

    How to "fix" a washer

    That is really funny. The water pump is hilarious,too. Not a bit afraid of that torch! I am surprised he was so concerned with water since the cleanest thing I saw in the house is the dog.

    7 minute frosting and chocolate cake. Great flavor combination.

    Painting the embalming room at a funeral home.

    Just from a cosmetic standpoint I like very neutral colors in the lab. Back in the day white with black trim was just fine by me. I don't want anything casting a hue on a body I am cosmetizing. As it is, some of the chemical manufacturers are putting way too much dye in the fluids. I just don't...

    Painting the embalming room at a funeral home.

    I grew up in the funeral business. Have worked most of my working years in the business. I have NEVER seen a body that was REALLY DEAD sit up, kick or flail their arms about. I don't even know anyone else in funeral service that has ever seen such a thing. Rarely, like twice in 50 years I have...

    1960 Frigidaire washer WD-60

    Tommy I went and checked . At one time I had three of those machines. For all I know the one you got may have been one of the three. I have a console but all the parts were harvested from it. I didn't take it apart, so somebody got to it before I got it. It is possible I may have some of those...

    Painting the embalming room at a funeral home.

    Greg and Dave----- Greg, be glad you do what you do. The funeral business as we have always know it here in the US is morphing into a completely different critter. There are many reasons, too many to list here. Suffice it to say, five years from now it may very well be nationalized by the...

    Filter Flo Agitator Repair/Replacement

    I am not an expert,however,the spiral GE Activator should seat itself. You should feel it lock down when you push it onto the shaft. I believe there is a part at the top of the shaft that wears out and needs replacement. I can not recall what it is called. I think it serves as a seal as well...
