Nope, my SQ does only about 185 degrees. 1974 solid Tub, advertised as 210, doesn't deliver. It's a great machine and washes well, but it ain't 210 degrees.

How did you come to that
185 degree figure, Mark?
Inquiring minds want to know.

trick of the eye.....those agitators are moving faster than what the eye can see....as RW showed in the vids, for which they too looked like only 180 until it was slowed way down.....
SQ solid tubs all used the same tranny as what Jon has in his '57, and with the tranny opened, he marked a 210 degree stroke....
I think it just falls as an optical illusion....

I only have the one cheapie digital snapshot/video camera, and no intention of buying a new one. So who knows, maybe it tricks the eye? Maybe if I had a 2 speed SQ and filmed it on low speed, it would clear up questions, but mine is single speed only. It's a great solid tub washer, well built, excellent rinsing and overflow, so I'm gonna stop caring what the exact degree is and just enjoy the action and water noises and results. I wish I had first found a stainless solid tub machine, it's a slghtly larger tub than the porcelain, but this is the one I have and it will keep me happy for years.
Somewhere on my list of desired machines is a 60's GM Frig solid tub, I think it was their mode of operation until the 1-18 in 1970? And a GE Soild tub filter flo, I think I have to go back to 63 ish?, 65 ish to find that before the perf models. All the varieties impress me more than a dozen models of the same base design.
