Yes I sure did use AI for the voice narration, and it seems to have advanced quite a bit in quality since I did my last video about 4 months ago.Thanks Robert, for that highly amusing video.
Amazing how you managed to create those voices... Betty, Gladys, etc.
Did you use some sort of A.I. to accomplish that?
Thanks Dan. Yes with the early clutch design it did that. When they changed the clutch and put it on the motor around 1953 it prevented the agitator from doing that during spin start up.Well done!
Is it normal to agitate and spin at the same time, at least during its ramp up to spin?
All I can say is.......Yes I sure did use AI for the voice narration, and it seems to have advanced quite a bit in quality since I did my last video about 4 months ago.
How did the washer agitate?Thanks Dan. Yes with the early clutch design it did that. When they changed the clutch and put it on the motor around 1953 it prevented the agitator from doing that during spin start up.
Yes the pump runs in either direction so as long as the motor is running it is pumping out water. It's about 6 gallons used during the overflow. The water valve has a flow washer regulated to only fill 2.4 gallons a minute.Does the washer drain the outer cabinet during agitation? I ask because at starting at 34:50 the machine appears to oveflow about 12 (?) gallons of water and then at 37:05 starts gyrating. IIRC I remember members a while back telling me these machines pumped out water in both motor directions but unsure if that holds true with this machine.
It popped up on my YouTube last night and was wonderful. Excellent work, Robert. I wonder if that 2.5 minute neutral overflow is a bit wasteful, maybe they should have just done 2 agitated rinses instead? Amazing turnover of a full load, and excellent film-making! One of the cooler machines around, thanks for the washer history lesson. Did ABC have a drier at the time?
