Trying to establish a timeline from 1937 forwards here. Im pretty sure the FC1 -14 blenders are '38-'40 all list as 110V appliances. Also the jars carry the design patent and  the cutting blades are right out of the patent application too. Production halted '41-'46. After this point I see...

I found this video today from a local program in 1998. When  I was hosting one of the first Wash Ins a local TV program run by Esther Ferdinand  asked me  to be included to record the event for the local TV station. A human  interest story !   Well digging down many layers of files this popped...

Restoration completed . John & I & Todd & Jeff Got this beauty in October 2023 from the original owner.  We had to haul it out of  a very tight basement with a right turn at the top! It all 4 of us to get it out ! You can see it was pretty neglected but I was in love !

AVCO states the Home Laundry takes 9 pounds of clothes !   This Launderette is stuffing !    At least you go home sanitary with a damp load of clothes. That must have been heavy after a few blocks !     Just what is a Telecoin???????

Next project after the Bendix is... The Savage Washer-Dryer     For those collectors already out there, I found the current belt number for repair - 1926-1945 Savage took a Gates 2310 but that has been super-seeded by a 4L310. On order.

Having developed my own detergent; Rosalie's Zero Suds; and always recommended hot or warm wash I was gobsmacked to try New Tide Professional. The claim is professional stains gone in 1 wash in COLD. Now normally I would brush this off, but I know P&G have been in the lab these last two years...

SO happy to report the "subject", which is a model G1 !; now sits in my laundry lab for restoration! I have to say a word about everyone who helped me! This was a big haul in a very tricky basement , in a galaxy far far away! John Lefever who is always, has always stood by to help me with...

Here we go standard Westinghouse - BUT - the Streamliner is so so cute!

Looking for the Factory Service Manual for GE FF washers between 1961-1969, anybody have one I can copy?   Also does any member have an extra 12 pound tub in good condition they need to part with???   You can message me directly if you like. Jon     Jetcone

This will take a lot of research.    Who made the Combination Washer-Dryer for Montgomery Wards? Not who built it.     Answer will come later.....clock is ticking .... Jetcone.     Hint - UAN. [this post was last edited: 7/8/2021-16:28]

The Frigidaire Motor Failure! I have disassembled Eddie's WO-65-2. Much to my surprise its practically brand new! I have never seen the mounting screws with zero rust, have not opened a  machine that had the diverter AND speed bumper in Mint original condition.  The machine seized on Eddie one...
