Diomede, that is a really neat machine. It looks like you put a lot of work into it. The video was fun, thanks for sharing it.

That machine reminds me of the Zanussi toploader my grandparents had. Don't remember the model name right now, but it only had a timer knob. Wonderful that you saved this machine.
