    GE Harmony -- tub bearing replacement?

    Has anyone attempted to replace the tub bearing in a GE Harmony washer? Mine is making noise. It has been for a while, but I recently noticed it's getting worse. Other than this, the machine has been problem free and my wife loves it, so when the bearing eventually fails, I'm considering...

    Car Accessories That Used to be Options But Are Now Standard

    Sorry for the long-winded title... but the first-air-conditioned car thread got me to thinking about other accessories and things in cars that used to be extra-cost options (or aftermarket add-ons), but are now standard. Here's a few things I came up with, in roughly the decades when they first...

    I'm disgusted

    Watching HGTV, we just watched a couple buy a nice mid-century home in L.A. and then completely gut it for a trendy-hip "Tuscan" style. And worse, they took out a wall and then, to support the load, put in a beam -- one end of which rests on top of a doorway.

    Interesting gas range (Huntsville, AL)

    I can't quite make out the brand name on the badge at the left. It apparently does still have the pot that goes in the deep-well cooker. Note the overhead light above the backsplash.

    The Last Bolt Downs?

    The Norge ad in yesterday's POD contained a mention of "No need to bolt down!" That got me thinking: what were the last bolt-down machines made for residential use? Were there any made after 1960? (I'm aware that there are commercial bolt-downs still made today.)

    KitchenAid KUDS02FRBL0 -- new motor?

    My KitchenAid KUDS02FRBL0 has, for the past two weeks, been making a buzzing noise that is getting steadily worse. It makes the noise whenever the wash motor runs. Last weekend I opened up the sump and checked the chopper; there were a couple of small chicken bones in there, but removing them...

    Belt drive spray rinses: how are they timed?

    IIRC, on the WP/KM belt drives, the timer increment is either 30 or 60 seconds. It occurred to me today: the spray rinses are considerably shorter than 30 seconds. So the question is: how does the timer time them? Does it have a separate gear train that increments at the duration of the spray...

    Retro bath heaters

    Does anyone know of a source for a retro-styled, forced-air, ceiling mount bath heater? I'm looking for something to put in our master bath, and the generic heater/fan/light combos aren't doing anything for me. I'm not really particular if it's actually old or retro-style new; the look is what...

    Coin-op timers with auxiliary contacts?

    Thinking about something I remember from a long time ago... there was a laundromat in town that, because of the building it was in, was divided into two rooms. The dryers and the waiting lounge were in one room, and the washers were in a separate room. The waiting area had a big indicator...
