Hey guys, wondering if anyone that has worked on a White-Westinghouse SpaceMates FL washer from the late 70s/early 80s can put up info on how to tighten the drive belts. My machine is the one direction only tumble and has the potato pulley for the regular speed wash/rinse tumble and the big...

Yep..... very familiar with both. When my wife and I started dating back in early '96 I found that she had this same set with the gray agi and the one water level and the matching dryer too. She had went through an ugly divorce that left her nearly bankrupt with three kids at home and in...

Along the same lines as Malcom but different machine..... I'm still looking for the ever elusive 1956 Westinghouse Slant Front Laundromat Deluxe. To be sure it's going to be extremely difficult to find - don't even need a matching dryer (no room right now) just the washer and that would pretty...

Hey guys, This has already been said but I agree - don't think either of these machines have ever been used! I would think that, if anything, all you might need to do is put new belts on and perhaps new hoses on the washer otherwise I think they last and work perfectly for many years even...

Gyrafoam......... Thanks much for the "in the business" aspect of things - I appreciate it very much and find many things mentioned to be of great interest - really do appreciate it. I have a friend in the business as well and we've talked many times about some of the issues that he has had...

Roger........ That's my whole point on the funeral business (aka:death care) where the big companies take over - there is no regard, respect, comfort or understanding for the families left to deal with things afterward and move on through their lives. The casket thing is another maddening issue...

Six Feet Under is a hoot! The ultimate disfunctional family in that one and then there was the reality show Family Plots from the Poway-Bernardo FH in San Diego, CA - a regular Peyton Place and equally disfunctional and the guy running the place was a big BSer and scam artist and had the hots...

Oh yes......... I'm familiar with SCI (Service Corporation International) - got to be one of the most crooked businesses around..... they basically go into the towns and cities across the country and buy up all the mortuaries/funeral homes - many run for generations by one or several families...

For some reason this morning this item came to mind regarding experiences working with mortuaries/funeral homes when planning a funeral for a loved one, a pre-plan or the less-than-welcome/desirable tactics of following up (for pre-plan packages) on familes shortly after the funeral, burial etc...

Just thoughts............ Age aside, I don't think the founding fathers of this country ever anticipated or considered the idea of career politicians. Term limiting the House and Senate I think had the idea that the "house" (both chambers) would be cleaned from time to time and I think they...

About my cat photos........ I'm posting these from my work computer and pulled them off my Facebook page and could not get them to convert to JPEG they are in Bitmap format so you may have to use the Paint app or something similar to open if the photos don't show up for you here on AWorg.

Here's another pick of my kittty Puff-Puff This one from Christmas a few years back.

My kitty.......... Here's a couple of photos of my cat Puff-Puff..... she is 14 years old now. My wife got her while a kitten back in 1996 when we were engaged - I had lost my 17 year old cat, also named Puff, a year earlier and she had two dogs when we met and she thought I should have a cat...

***** Udate on White-Westy SpaceMates Videos ***** Hey guys, All four videos comprising an entire wash/rinse cycle are now on YouTube! Lighting was still not as good as I would have liked but in time I hope to remedy that situation and will do an updated set sometime. Next up will be the...

White Castle (aka: Krystal in the SE US)........ Yes by all means take tums, rolaides, pepsid, immodium etc. They don't call them sliders (gut bombs here) for nothing - they will slide right out the other end in short order and at the most inopportune moment. You've been warned but, if you...

Yes on the amount of water....... There is alot - much, much more than the new HE washers..... I have a large GE front load HE machine and I've never thought it had enough water for wash or rinses. The water level was set to large for these segments - more can be added by holding the water...

**** Gordon *** The Penta-Swirl agitator like this machine has - would that work in my KM 600? Would love to find one of those if it would fit - one of my favorites of the KM agitators. Thanks much!

Definately stay near the vintage machines when in use..... I generally tend to stay near the White-Westy SpaceMates front loader I have as you never know what might happen and sometimes if the load doesn't balance out in the spins it wants to try to walk away not to mention that it sounds like...

More than understand.......... Kelly, I can totally identify and understand what you're going through - my wife and I, along with my wife's sisters, took care of her mother from 1996-2004 and the toll this disease takes on the person who has it as well as the ones giving care is unimaginable...
