I'll add my thanks and appreciation to all the others, best of luck and enjoy! Roger in NY

this is why... imo ground mount panels are a much better idea, we have ones that hold 9 panels each and it's easy to add more. The angle can be easily changed as seasons progress, they can be easily cleaned of snow or dirt, are far more accessible, and no worries about roof leaks or replacement...

KA one arm wonders... work great with just the tiniest bit of intelligence when loading. We bought a KDC-17 new in 1974 and used it for 15 years with a family of 5 (after '77 and on) and it was a fabulous machine, fast, thorough, and dependable. We've had a KDI-18 as well. Remember the...

telephone dial d/w... Wow so cool! I've seen Paul's but never another, have fun! but parts must be a bear I'd imagine...

That is so cool... ...love the color. Wish WP still made something like this, with retro styling. Great save, have fun John!

Great ranges... I have the slightly newer version with Electri-Clean that I cook on several times a day, it's become a real favorite!

Washer wanted? Hi Bill: I have a nice '73 1:18. Harvest Gold with window. Needs minor work but I have all parts and tons of spares. Located in Binghamton (Endwell) - 20 miles away? Can't get much closed than that. Also KA 17 series d/w. eMail if interested. Roger

Hiya John! Phil is here right now, he interested but now he's in a situation where he can't leave his area because of his Mom's serious health problems that he's obligated to stay close by for, but he'll be in touch John!

Hmmmm... PhilR, Mr. Frigidaire from Quebec, the uber FD expert, is coming to visit us today at our Vermont lake place,, will have to show him this one!

he didn't test the best one... Aerokroil. Been restoring cars for 50 years, it's my go to... always. The hot-hammer (torch) is for when I get really desperate.

Not good! The very last remaining full-line large scale US maker of appliances should remain intact, independent and US owned. How many industries are we going to lose or give up producing before we get smart?... steel, TVs, radios, laptops, cars, (actual cars, not suvs & trucks), tools, and...

We have a 1961 GE range... (pic) and would dearly love to find the manual for it if anyone has one they'd like to part with/sell. eMailed some weeks ago but never heard back.

and... ours is the shaded Harvest color, therefore a bit older?

look familiar.... our is almost identical but for the blue load level grapic on the 2nd to R most knob.

what a great space!... and I see you filled it with some refugees from Phil's garage, including a Pank '60 FD Deluxe washer that Josh & I found in Ithaca that also went to Phil! Have fun!

stackers... John recommended a Whirlpool 1 pc top-load stacker-set when we finally decided that we needed a dryer for our Vermont lake place. Usually we hang laundry out to dry in the sun there and at home but it's v nice to have the dryer for rainy days or when there's a glut of beach towels...

Hobart, Vulcan-Hart and ITW... Now under ITW, Vulcan one of the leading commercial range makers, began in 1949 when Vulcan and Hart merged and their headquarters, offices, and many of their ranges were, and still are, made at their largest facility on North Point Rd in Dundalk MD (Baltimore)...

The hospice where we volunteer just put in a new $250k kitchen. Besides a full complement of Traulsen commercial refrigeration (the best), it also has 2 of these amazing "Centerline by Hobart" undercounter dish machines. Why they put in 2 no idea as it's capable of 12 full load cycles an hour, a...

Saw the link (para. 3 below) in an old www.retrorenovation.com post (RIP!) It seems there was major litigation by WCI and others around 1985 to prevent this from happening. At the conclusion of the case a temporary injunction was issued. Some very interesting facts here, as well as history that...

UV back in the Olde Days.... back in the '50s and early '60s, in the "Hot Shoppes" (?) rest stops (iirc?) on the NY Thruway, or was it the New Jersey TPK? when you folded up the rest-room toilet seat it went into a housing on the wall with a UV light in it and a switch inside turned it on, on...
