Thanks for the link. I joined that forum just now - I have the part that the person is missing on their machine, one of the extras I bought.

Phil,   There is no place for a fourth foot, I had the base flipped over when I was cleaning it and there is no fitting for one and it is not needed.   The aluminum fences, guards, and trays all come off. I hand wash them and put them back on. Total clean up takes less than 10 minutes. It...

Phil, "Question - would this be suitable for cheeses? I don't see why not. I worked at a pizzeria where they had a different machine for the cheese, for health reasons." Yes, one could use this for cheese - I intend to as a matter of fact. It should be able to slice bread too. "Also -...

I made a youtube video of the slicer in operation. <youtube></youtube>

The entire American Slicing Machine complete and cleaned.

The rest of the parts arrived today and now everything on the slicer fits as it should. I'm assuming the parts were delayed by the weather but the USPS never responded to my inquiries about this MIA package. The picture below shows the replacement juice tray in place. The slide bar covers part...

Welcome to the forum Rex. Hopefully someone will be able to help with this part.     Now, everyone look at the upper left of this text box. See that car? I bought it from Rex years ago. He's a great guy to deal with and likes vintage appliances as well as cars.  

I put the machine back together yesterday and it functions much better: the adjustments are smooth and easy now that the old hard grease is gone. I thought that the base and major parts were porcelain enameled but they are actually painted with a thick coat of good quality paint - I know because...

Ovrphil That Frigidaire deep freeze is a 1955 model. Wish I was closer, I have the matching fridge:     http://home.roadrunner.com/~limited58/1955frigidaire.htm

New belt The old one was falling apart, lots of old rubber debris in this area. Also cleaned the sharping stones. I'll post more pics as the assembly process continues.

Next, Various sheet metal covers cleaned and repainted.

This picture, while not as good, shows the cleaned slice thickness mechanism. Note the slide rods look silver rather than black.

I received the missing parts and started to clean the slicer. Every time I removed a part I found more filth, so I now have the slicer disassembled into its component parts. This filth was not in areas that come into contact with the meat being sliced but is a result of juices running into...

I have that Hotpoint fridge in rougher shape. If that one was closer I think I'd buy it.

Not that I have an opinion one way or the other... Well, I hate to force my views on anyone (Go Get The Fridge!) but I know Hans will do what he feels is best (Go Get The Fridge!) but I agree with Sandy: if this is identical to your childhood fridge (Go Get The Fridge!) and is nearby at a good...

That fridge looks to be in great shape and seems to have all the parts. For some reason the "meat keeper" type fixtures always seem to disappear over the years, followed by the veggie drawers. I don't think the price is out of line for its condition and completeness.

Basically, if a compressor is bad, it seems to me you can just replace it and be fine. A leak is harder to find.   My 1954 Frigidaire did not cool when I got it. I had it charged in 1999 and I have had no problems since then. On the other hand, my '52 GE, which had sat unplugged for at least...

Does it have a solid or glass bottom? We had one with a glass bottom when I was a kid.   I bought two nice ornate pewter beer steins when I was in Germany - love the look.
