    the dues of being a washer collector

    Reply #15 Sounds like this guy isnt teasing or making fun of you after all. Sounds like a closet case that has a deep seated desire to make moves on you but is too scared but plays it down by being passive aggressive to you and keeping his feelings and masculinity in check.

    the dues of being a washer collector

    Tell your co worker to SUCK IT. I've had to deal with this my whole life. From idiots 40 years ago laughing at me for "playing with trains " regarding my vintage American Flyer collection, to people in my other various hobbies like fans and radios etc and vehicles people have nothing good to...

    Possible Maytag A806 score

    He said he would have his guys wet/dry vac it out so lets hope he comes through. Im banking on the motor not being the stuck part so I can at least remove the trans belt and pump the water out. If so Ill fill it back up with hot water, pour bleach in it then pump that water out because this will...

    I asked my friend if it had a floor drain in the basement he said no. Unless I can get it pump water with just the pump belt on we'll have to hump it outside with the hand truck full of water then drop the drain hose to the ground and let it empty before loading it into my Tacoma. Unless he...

    Help! Maytag A-208 outer tub

    Blue paint..... The closest Ive seen to the original shade was 1964 Chevy Impala " Silver Blue " paint. Growing up my dads friend had a 64 4dr hard top in that exact same color. Hope this helps.

    Well after a bout of pancreatitis kicked my ass the last 4 weeks I was finally able to go to a friends house this week he just bought to fix up and sell. Saying the old guy was a slob is an understatement. The place is a dirty pig stye. I originally went there to look at some old VW's and a...

    Good-Bye To Gas Kitchen, Hot Water & Heating & Laundry Appliances In NYC

    As if electric grids arent over burdened already. They should be building more "clean" power plants ahead of all this demand they're now creating, but they wont. So when power goes out you're totally fcked unless you have a HUGE standby generator until they ban those. NO THANKS. I'll take my...

    Maytag A712 Is Dying

    Have you tried Kroil? Its the best stuff on the planet to loosen frozen parts. Also try taking a small wooden block and tapping one of the spokes of the pulley with a hammer to spin it off the shaft

    Should I or shouldn’t I?

    Looks like the 1964 A500 I parted out. It was given to me by a friend that let it sit 2 years with water in the tub after it died and wouldnt pump out. It was like new but sadly the spin basket rotted out on the bottom from the standing water all that time. The reason was the start winding burnt...

    Will you send it out for plating or is it something you can do yourself with some basic stuff and a Youtube vid?

    My Early Maytag A806 Rework Progress

    I wonder if really cleaning those splines down shiny and brushing a thin coat of zinc chromate primer would keep rust and pitting at bay a while?

    Another "Aunt" vanishes from the breakfast table

    Reply #16 Most times here in the USA the triggered lot take something that was never ugly and racist in the first place either and spin it to make something the vast population never had a problem with for many decades but suddenly becomes infuriated with. See what happens when you grow without...

    Another "Aunt" vanishes from the breakfast table

    Reply #4 No but Guido & Co sure were treated like dirt when they came here, from getting their names destroyed in translation to being treated like trash by the Irish, who loathed all those " dirty guineas ". Trust me I heard lots of stories growing up from the old timers that lived through...

    Another "Aunt" vanishes from the breakfast table

    Woke culture madness The country has gone crazy. Being Italian it wouldnt have bothered me a bit if there was a pasta sauce sold under the " Old Guido " or " Joe Grease ball " brands. I think theres bigger fish to fry in life to get triggered over all that krappe

    My Early Maytag A806 Rework Progress

    I salvaged a bakelite agitator off a 1964 A500 that hadnt been off in decades by drilling a hole in the center after removing the lint filter and soaking it a few days with Kroil. It gave me a fight but I was still able to wiggle it off with my hands. I J B Welded the hole after.
