    Amana radar range

    You said it. Quality. All that stainless lined interior...and assembled like a war tank! Good, good stuff. Yeah, the weight is tremendous on those--about threw out my back when I had to move this thing to the moving truck a few months ago! Gotta be around 60-70lb easy. Haven't looked...

    Amana radar range

    Date might be... more in line with 1975-76. Meant to put that in earlier reply. I was about 10 then, and a neighbour of ours bought that same model new....I think it's an RR-7?

    Amana radar range

    Jason, what a great score! Alot of us up here have Amana Radaranges....most prefer the earlier chrome ones like you have (I *think* yours dates to post 1972 to circa 1978 or 79....maybe very early 80s). Someone up here will be able to tell you exactly as they're super familiar with each and...

    1963-1965 Hotpoint Hallmark Range in 40" Anyone selling?

    Thanks guys... The exhaust system primarily is the reason I want one of these. I love Frigidaires, and Flairs in particular....but have never been able to commit to buying one for all the well-known reasons. The 40" Hallmark is the only thing that appeals to me both for the exhaust setup up...

    Help me choosing a coffee maker

    An oddball choice for most, but I swear by these: Krups Moka (aka t8). I probably wouldn't buy the newest version (made in China, I believe). I use one of the late 90s/early 2000s French made ones (mine's the black one in pic below). Mine was made for the US/North American market electric...

    Candidate/Replacement for '57 GE Combination

    Great Fridges, Ralph... I had one of those many years ago...and if I recall correctly, it was among the last of the porcelain lined units made. GREAT fridge (mine was, at least). I'd have another one, definitely. The shelves....you'll probably have to trawl craigslist frequently for...

    How good are Hobart kitchenaid dishwashers?

    Very few people don't like them... And the reputation is beginning to spread, apparently, as my recent (December) house sale in Arizona stipulated that my Hobart Kitchenaid KDS-20 remain for the new buyers. I wasn't happy about that. I LOVED that machine....luckily I hung on to my KDS-23 and...

    1963 modernist House--Any experts on Mortise door Lock Entry / Entrance ?

    Max-- Thanks for the reply, and pardon my lapse in acknowledging it. I took the mortise assembly out today. It is "E-Z Mortise" (made of Iron). It looks like 1930s or 40s manufacture to me (and in fact, a very old looking one identical to mine sold on ebay in Dec. for $220-odd) I...

    Vintage Schrader Wood Fired Range/Fireplace

    Those things will HEAT like.... nobody's business. We had one in a 2,600 sq. ft. tri-level in the late 70s. Family room was always toasty warm, and got there quick. In fact, the whole house stayed warm quite well with it. Asking price seems quite fair--seems my dad paid in the $1,000 region...

    1963-1965 Hotpoint Hallmark Range in 40" Anyone selling?

    I'm considering one of these units for my kitchen. There is one for sale a couple hours from me, but it's a 30" model, and I want a 40". Any of you got one you'd consider parting with? Reference pic of a 40" width one attached

    1963 modernist House--Any experts on Mortise door Lock Entry / Entrance ?

    Ralph~spewing parts... HAHAHAH! Love that visual your reply gives me. I don't know for certain that anything would happen, I just have an ancient memory of my father working on one and him telling me that if you don't remove certain set screws at just the right time or in just the right way...

    1963 modernist House--Any experts on Mortise door Lock Entry / Entrance ?

    Ralph~ Those mortise locks are still produced and sold today, even. They've always been popular (though way less common to find in shops)...as for my door, I can see that there once was a knob on it, but the searching I've done in the past couple weeks turns up results that I won't be able to...

    1963 modernist House--Any experts on Mortise door Lock Entry / Entrance ?

    Tim~ Thx for reply. The aluminum tone lock cylinder that you can see in one photo--those are simple to replace--they thread into the mortise lock itself. I'm not worried about that too much. If I elect to remove the mortise from inside the door, I would just replace that lock anyway. What I...

    1963 modernist House--Any experts on Mortise door Lock Entry / Entrance ?

    Deadbolt lock on the front door has no key. I can easily replace that small lock and actually lock up properly when I leave, for a change....but I still am just most curious as to what type of exterior knob I can put on here....it's very hard to see the internals on the closeup pic of where a...

    Lawrence.... No keys. Isn't that great?!?!?

    1963 modernist House--Any experts on Mortise door Lock Entry / Entrance ?

    Hi All, Recently, I purchased a fantastic early 60s custom home. If you're super astute, or a fan of vintage design magazines, you may recognise the door details from a feature in 1963 House Beautiful--the place is a design by Loch Crane (famed San Diego architect and Frank Lloyd Wright pupil)...

    Braun Aromaster KF400

    ...might've jumped the gun on previous post I'm not seeing the boxes I saw last week with my braun stuff....may have been donated. I'll have a hard look this weekend and repost if the things are actually still here!
