    Some new arrivals: A Frigidaire, Wilkins Servis, Simpson Dryer & a Pope wringer

    What a find... Leon these bring back such memories. The Simpson dryer truly reserved for the wealthy. The Frigidaire semi automatic belonged to a neighbor (Pat) who was locked out of the house because the machine on spin danced over the laundry door whilst she was hanging the first load of...

    Interesting brochure.....An Aussie 1960's ASTOR made under licence to APEX !

    I remember this machine... sold at H.G. Palmer stores. It may have been under license from APEX USA but it did have a gearbox and agitator. The bowl was light green/cream fibreglass, you could see the fibres and as the years went by and the phosphates did their thing the resin wore down and the...

    Funny... Front Loaders are Junk

    Trailer Trash Could not tell who was squawking the most, her or the parakeet with dirty water. Time to have some new supports installed before the trailer gets completely knocked of its foundation. I love front loaders.[this post was last edited: 3/6/2011-15:14]

    Australian friends hepl please - SIMPSON washer

    Simpson/FisherPaykel Sorry my friend, piece of junk. Goodness knows how it ended up over there. Full of plastic, the agitator is a dead give away for F/P. For several years Simpson, Hoover and Westinghouse put their own name on these F/P machines. Some made in Aus and some in NZ. You can see...

    Stupidity Here in California the Edison company arrives and will remove any tree, branch or palm fron that poses such a liability to the delivery of power to it's consumers. Late model automobiles, boat and houses, price to remove tree "outrageous". Does not make sense. I certainly do not want...

    First snow of winter is here!

    Tree Why don't you spend a few bucks and have the tree removed since it is half dead and then you will not have to live in fear of it falling or the hassle of the insurance claim to replace everything it destroys?

    Beam related to Franklin as well as Apex

    Frigidare POD JUne 5

    Frigidaire semi-automatic This POD is from Australia. Every washing machine maker back then produced a semi-automatic washer as the bottom end of the line-up. There was generally a selector switch for either agitate/pulsate and spin. The second dial was a timer for the period of time you want...
