A New Vintage Washroom...

[gansky1]

Everyone's had a few drams of whiskey and now the old pictures come out!

Looks like a great place for gatherings and a lot of fun, I definitely have that destination on my must-see list.

Meet up...

I'd love to come and have a look on the next meet up, is it a "bring a few washers"? I may have a few new ones coming that I haven't seen anyone have the EXACT version of it and I'd love to bring them?

Brilliant!

Hi chaps!

What an amazing set-up! Well done on all the hard work, and attention to detail. Wonderful to see so many great machine preserved. Especially happy to see the 'HotPots' lined up of course. Can't wait til I can get something set up over here, though I doubt it will ever be as good as this.

Best wishes, and happy washing.

Hi David

Great to hear from you, your 1509 is still safely packed away for when you do get your own laundry up and running, well to be honest I assume it is as the garage has filled up around it lol. Hope life's all good with you.

overload

This is so exciting all this happening and coming together.
Spoilt for choice up north we are now.

think how many machines are there and how many can be used!!!!!

And yes the "Hotpot" island is a great idea, though you might need to weld 2 six inch nails across the main supply board for the house as things might get a bit warm if there is a mass wash in, which would be great as i wont have to lift a finger and can do as I normally do..........SOD ALL.........ha ha

So that awful cheap girl from Chicago is coming better hide the Snob and the free tiara's................

Well ambulances are cheap to hire I hear so I might get one of those to bring me up its a funny little place in Cardiff of all places that does the service....ah well.

So yes keep us informed

No idea Mike, I have never seen those and the brochure says nothing about it either.

electra elecronic deluxe 1100

Looking forward to listening to the spin, right up to 1100 rpm even on the rinses unless you press the slow spin chunky option rocker switch, a unique sounding machine. will send me right back to the 80s.

The Blue Room

That's lovely Mike, all the sounds, the programer ticking and whirring, the growling motor and of course the clothes splashing in a proper amount of water............and of course it all works judging by the colour of that water!

that was well worth restoring a really nice machine Mike

Well done

Gary

Ps a picture of the Creda in Storage whilst Mike probes Als Keymatic, honestly it is not hair loss it is just the light like you said, isn't it Mike

Mike, I'm speechless.  Such amazing work all pulled together to result in an outstanding setting that truly totally beautiful and functional.  I can't wait to see the room of dishwashers!!!!  You are taking in washing when you become a pensioner correct?
