    Paul~appliances... All convey with house. I want that range badly. It's the same one we had in the 60s when I was a kid. LOVED that thing.

    Furnace question for Easterners/Cold Country members~

    Ken--roof, etc Some pics of the roof of garage and view of the back 1/2 acre. There is a door at top of 2nd floor stair landing which leads onto this "deck"....not sure how good an idea it is to walk on it, but the fact it exists is nice! Agreed on the state of the place...I'm way too much of...

    Furnace question for Easterners/Cold Country members~

    Jim and Eddie--Thanks... To answer some questions....I know nothing about the system except what the listing tells me: Forced air, gas and no cooling. I just keep looking at it and thinking it looks like a coal furnace on an old battleship! Yeah...loads of ductwork. I know enough from...

    Furnace question for Easterners/Cold Country members~

    I've attached a photo here of what I believe to be an original basement furnace of a 1936 build house I'm pondering. Anyone up here an expert on this stuff? I *think* it's a wood/coal burning unit but have no idea--haven't ever lived in a place that had anything but a modern-ish electrical...

    KitchenAid KUDA230YWH

    Scott, They are great machines. I've got 2 of the Superba machines in the 23 series--one of the traditional panel style and one Architect (in black). Should you find yourself in dire need of one, my Architect version is sitting unused in my dining room currently...!

    70s Whirlpool Dishwasher plus Tappan stuff pkg $50 Phoenix

    Nate and reviews... OVERDUE! I LOVE reading Nate's takes on things. Where are you!?!? I'm tempted by the dishwasher but I hate, hate HATE faux woodgrain. Panel changes are easy enough...but you can't do anything about that woodgrain without losing all the font and graphics work (unless you...

    The Brown THUNDERBOX! 1977 American Standard Luxor modernist toilet

    overflow / water levels etc. Ralph-- Yesterday I just put the toilet in place but didn't connect water source yet. I just wanted to fill the tank and bowl manually to see if things were somewhat *kosher*. I found yesterday that with the tank full and water level in bowl at proper level, it...

    70s Whirlpool Dishwasher plus Tappan stuff pkg $50 Phoenix

    What *looks* to be a nicely kept upper-end Whirlpool Dishwasher...similar to what we had circa 1978. The seller is offering everything in the ad for $50. I'm sure that Whirlpool is worth at least that to one of you...

    The Brown THUNDERBOX! 1977 American Standard Luxor modernist toilet

    Your folks and mine both. My mom also had the matching 6' angled back tub with gold handles and jacuzzi jet nozzles...all installed in '78. Somewhere I have a pic of that bathroom....

    The Brown THUNDERBOX! 1977 American Standard Luxor modernist toilet

    Laugh if you will. I have loved these things since I was a little kid. So cool looking. I've had this one stored for over 10 years and finally decided I am going to install it (yes...it is fully functional with no problems except for it not being politically correct in regards to the water...

    1965 Shower/Tub surround frame trim and masonite panels

    Thanks all for the thoughts and info! Matt: your link is probably the ideal scenario for what I'm thinking of. I was mostly concerned with replicating the style of metal trim currently in the shower and what that company has looks pretty ideal. I'm going to sell the house at some point in...

    1965 Shower/Tub surround frame trim and masonite panels

    Ok--a bit of a weird one here. I have a spare bathroom in my 1965 home--and it has the original goldtone aluminum framed/masonite panel shower surround in it. I *SHOULD* remove it and do a tile job but I'm cheap and don't want to go through all the work. Does anyone know if these trim pieces...

    Removing rust from solid element units

    After cleaning, you can: Apply a LIGHT coating of plain vegetable oil with a cloth. Just enough to give a mild gloss to the burners. Turn on full heat and wait for a small amount of smoke to give off, then turn back off. Cleaning rust can be done as others have mentioned above. I've got...

    Someone ID this obscure (to me) dishwasher!

    Saw it while browsing real estate listings. I *should* know what it is, but my mental file cabinet is FULL. Anyone??

    Thoughts on cleaning gunk off wood grain refrigerator handles

    A couple possibilities for cleaning....have a cup of HOT water and a soft tootbrush to spend several minutes just massaging the hot water onto the areas. Just keep at it awhile...eventually things free up to some degree. If it looks like no damage is going to happen, spray on some 409 cleaner...

    Revers-a-rack....never installed

    I had to pass one of those up last year because I was told my KitchenAid DW stash was too much already. Always wanted one of these JennAir units! Good find there!

    Isn't that more along the lines of 1979-82 ish? They're mentioning 1974 mfg. date...seems off.
