I accept your apology about the file sizes and offer the following report -

I downloaded the first 2 here at home with my dial-up..and they took about 50 minutes each. Then I went to a buddy's place with high-speed and downloaded them all and burned them to a cd-rom for repeated viewings~!

Again, You Rock, Dude!~
Love that GE.

Holla from Hollywood.

50 minutes each? I apparently have a fast dial-up.

Robert,

Thanks for the videos on the 1947 GE. What an impressive machine. Such a shame GE couldn't keep up the high quality of that machine. The spin is fantastic. And the ability to re-use the last rinse water. A wonderful way of conserving. I've used a machine from the early '50's that looked similar to that one, but the quality was not there.

Thanks again. Jerry Gay

Oh Robert, You are so right about being "so slapped". Haven't had a chance to look at all the videos yet but what I have seen are great. That is such a neat machine and looks so much like my mom's first automatic the 1951 GE of course I know this one works entirely different. Can't wait to see this machine in person some day. Thanks again for taking the time to share this with all of us. Terry

Question

What is that noise in the background?

When watching the Break/rinse fill video, I hear like the sound of agitation in the background.

What is that?

When watching the Break/rinse fill video, I hear like the sound of agitation in the background.

That's the electric drain pump, when it switches to fill it turns off the drain pump and starts the electric recirculation pump.
