Spacemate Dryer I think that dryer is missing part of the knob.

Gyromatic There was one of these machines with the dispenser for free in RI a few months ago and I contacted the guy but he had it junked because he thought nobody wanted it.I was so mad.

knobs Looks to me from the picture the washer is missing 2 knobs.I can tell I have that washer in white but its rough.The basket and filter are pristine though that is half the battle.

Pump That is the pump assembly he gave me that too but he said there was an actual kit to retrofit a gravity machine like mine to a pump machine that is what I don't have the answer to. I had forgotten you had the duo that needs the bracket. I got my 1970 lady Kenmore from Revvinkevin. when I...

Pump Would that pump number be for the conversion?That is a number I would love to have. I think its great you are buying one of the dexters.They are very rare I have only seen one on here one other time and I think that was 2010.To find one that isn't wrecked and in need of serious repair is a...

Video Hey Richard, just wanted to thank you for posting that video I watch it over and over again.Brings back happy memories of 30 years ago years ago visiting Laundromats that had those machines and of a time before the world and my life turned to sh**. That machine has a simple majestic...

Adjustment There is an adjustment screw on the water level switch to bring it higher the thing is if you do and I have tried this when the machine agitates at this level it throws water around like mad. If you had the lid up you would get drenched.It will even leak on the floor.

Dexter One thing that is nice about that machine is it is essentially a duo minus the dry but without the weight.My Dexter is relatively light compared to my 58 bendix duo,oh my god is that machine heavy when the day comes to move that into the next room I will need four strong dudes. All this...

Sign I had a hand carved sign made for him at the Bottomsfield Fair (It is actually the Topsfield fair but I call it that because its in a field at the bottom of a hill,the countrys oldest aggravated agricultural fair to be exact) because he was so helpful that said The Wash Basket Laundry est...

The Wash Basket Cool! I bought my Dexter from Gary. Did you see the sign on the wall?I gave him that I had it made at the Topsfield fair.That laundry has been in business since 1947 and was originally an all boltdown bendix Laundromat.Those machines he has are all gravity drain but he said...

machines Hey Todd,I emailed as well.

Rust I am going to assume you mean rust on the porcelain washbasket which would rub on the clothes.I would remove that with hot water and a brillo pad.I would also spray something on it first to loosen and dissolve it.Ask your hardware store. Glad you got your unimatic I have been following...

Get a better washer In my opinion there is no better washer.Those washers wash great and are indestructible. Those washers do not like cold basements.When maytag went to the orbital transmission which washes lousy thank you that didn't cure the cold basement problem even those were slow to get...

57 set That 57 set was on here several months ago.They told me it was sold.I have that washer.

Westinghouse Dryer Great score and a beautiful machine. I have always wanted to see one of those in operation.Would love to see pics.

kds-17 That is a kds-17.I have two of them one of which is new never run.I would grab the whole machine it is a beautiful work of art never mind if it works.I like to just look at it and feel it.So nice.

PWS Laundry I wonder if that company has the pump drain conversion kit then I would really be in business.My machine is gravity drain.The transmission on my Dexter is different than that of my 58 duomatic in thar the spins are slower.Dont know why they did that.

speedqueen If Gary didn't call you I would call him again he isn't great about returning calls.He is the nicest guy I sent him a hand carved sign from the Topsfield Fair here in Mass for his Laundromat the Wash Basket his father started in 1947.Originally it was an all bendix laundry.He said he...

rope maker The pair pictured is the pair my parents had when they bought our house in 1953.They got them used.My mother who is 89 now said that washer never tangled and she loved it.I can only assume then those who had tangle problems were somehow being boneheads with their machines.

poor spin One surefire way to know if you have an alignment problem is try turning the agitator shaft with the agitator installed.There should be no drag at all it should turn freely you should be able to spin it with your hands.If it feels stiff or does not spin along with the basket during...
