    Kohler washers

    While looking at a 1929 Kohler plumbing fixture catalog online, I saw they made (or sold) a wringer washer. It even came in all their fixture colors! They also had a combination sink-clothes washer, similar to their sink-dishwasher...

    Throwing away food

    I'm so irritated at myself! I just went through my pantry, and found packages of food that had "best if used by" dates as far back as 2022. Anything dated prior to November 2024 (except some hot cocoa mix and a couple chocolate pudding mixes) I've set out for the garbage. I didn't weigh it, but...

    Ridding Microwave of burnt smell

    Decided I wanted mac & cheese for lunch today. I got distracted and did something really dumb - put the paper cup of pasta in MW without filling it with water. Needless to say, after a couple minutes it made a good bit of smoke. It's rather cold outside, so can't open the doors and windows to...

    1931 GE Wringer Washer Ad

    I don't think I've ever seen an ad for this washer, much less the actual machine. Looks to be an unusual color.

    This is an interesting film produced in 1944, by Public Service Co. of Northern Illinois, and sponsored by GE. Appliances are shown towards the end, in the section titled "Family".

    and Lyle Talbot. "Flight to the Future" is a 1952 film about the plastics industry. The refrigerator is a Crosley. I didn't know flexible plastic ice trays were available that early. The range and cabinets also look to be Crosley. The gray plastic wall tile looks just like what was originally...

    Moldy Bread

    Yuck! I just started to eat a piece of bread that I bought a few days ago at Kroger, and it had a spot of mold on it. I spit the rest of it out, and drank a couple cups of water. It wasn't cheap either - Pepperidge Farm Butter Bread. The sell by date says Aug. 15th; I purchased it late on the...

    Vehicle repairs

    My 2012 Ford Escape started making a bit of exhaust noise a couple weeks ago, and got much worse a few days ago. I looked under it when I first noticed the noise, and didn't see anything unusual. I had the oil changed, which included a multi-point inspection, about a week ago, and they didn't...

    Whirlpool Calypso bottom panel removal

    I need to remove the bottom access panel on my 2003 washer, to inspect and clean. I took the back panel off, and vacuumed what I could, but couldn't get toward the front. I heard a mouse scratching around in it one night, then saw one run out a little later. I want to clean it good, and make...
