    Barbecuing with charcoal.

    I usually use charcoal.  You can't beat the flavor of charcoal  (& usually some hardwood chunks thrown on for added flavor) cooked food.  Gas grills are fine but just do not give the added flavor that I like.  Charcoal makes you slow down and relax.  That's really what bbq-ing is all about...

    Roach (and other vermin) Stories

    OH!  I just thought of another more recent story.  My dad & I delivered a used washer to an old guy out in the country near my house.  He lives in an older farmhouse that was in decent shape.  The washer was right against his gas stove in the kitchen, so the washer had grease on it, but we...

    Roach (and other vermin) Stories

    Being in the appliance biz, we get into a fair amount of roach infested houses in the rougher parts of our fair city.  It always amazes me how the residents seem to just ignore them while we're trying to avoid 'em.  We have a lot of renter-occupied places around here.   I've had roaches come...

    Electric washer pump needed for non-washing machine related project

    58limited, I definitely would not call me advanced.  My brother & I brewed extract and partial extract for quite a few years.  Then we got busy and stopped brewing for a spell.  About 1 1/2 years ago, we got the itch to start brewing again.  We decided to go all grain this time.  I had a few old...

    What is the oldest "thing" you own in your household?

    The oldest thing right now would be a stove from 1742.  I'd put a picture up, but I'd rather do that in the "pay" side since those threads are not google searchable on the WWW.

    Well our new KitchenAid dw has broken down in just 11 months

    Petek, sometimes the clean light flashing less than 7 times (you said 4 times) could mean a water issue.  You could have a water temp problem.   When it blinks 7 times, it may be a control issue.  I've seen both issues.    Here is a quick link to maybe try.    ...

    I think Legacy was Home Depot's name, esp with Amanatags.

    Check out this strange Dependable Care

    Nope.  This wasn't the last design.  The LAV3600 was.  I tried to find a pic but couldn't.  The washer pictured above was a special edition celebrating something but my mind is foggy this AM for some reason.  It wasn't exactly the best looking washer at the time.   The LAV3600 had an oblong...

    Duet Water fill/Rinse issues

    What type of fill hose are you using?  Flood-prevention type hoses are not recommended.  Also, check the screen on your water valve on the back of the washer.

    DD Kenmore Noise

    We never really run into bearing issues with a DD machine.  My guess is something got into the pump.  The underwire from a bra is the most usual culprit that we find in these pumps.  Sometimes, gak that has formed up on the outer tub comes loose and gets into the pump.  Even though the gak may...

    BD Vintage matching Whirlpools in CT

    The world would be a much easier place without people. Ken, you & I do not agree on a whole lot, but I am with you 100% on this one.  I'd like to pop the person that came up with "I'm a people person."  They obviously hadn't dealt with a lot of the general public!!!

    Looking for help with a 2-3 year old Whirlpool washer

    Allen, you also have to figure insurance on the truck & health insurance on the tech, parts stock on the truck, lights -  phone -  internet - heating - cooling of the shop, tool cost, additional technical training, etc etc etc.  I realize some companies charge waaaaaay too much.  My main...
