Love the pictures! Wringing race is it? Well, after I get to know my new digital camera better, I can do that only I will use the 1955 ABC wringer and see what you think about that? It has smaller rollers than the Maytag or Visa matic but does a good job too. Have fun. Gary
 
Very exciting! I totally peed! If I could ever find an Easy Spin Dry Conventional (which has always been my fave) I think I'd end up using it more than my Hettie! I love getting involved with my laundry.
 
Did those two exposed buttons make it through OK? I thought that they had to be folded inside the garment before it went through the wringer, no?
Loved the presentation, but those of us who have done laundry in a wringer washer know that it is a lot of work, even if you are not rinsing in set tubs and hanging one load of laundry out to dry while washing another.

Hello Steve, Sam, Dave, Ross, Scott, Gary, Gene, Tom, and Gr

So glad you noticed the bling, Steve; sometimes the things the camera catches are truly astonishing.

Sooooooo, Brother Robert, If you didn't want skin, theeeennnn........why weren't you wearing your nun's habit instead of the "muskle" shirt ? : - D The spray made the day!

What a nice thing to say, you beautiful Hawaiian!

Thank You Ross, but you have a THOR, the ultimate conventional, and such a beautiful studio.

Have no fear, Scott I was just letting the lady play to the camera. Are you wringing or sitting? I see you fill to the top like Geoff does, and you have the Maytag Cadillac.

Gar, I'd love to see you collection, and maybe we could have a prettiest rope contest with Geoff--after the race!

Gene, you peed, Yippee, another load to do. And you made me laugh really hard.
I'll save my other less able Easy for you, indefinately. Maybe you can torque her up.

A lot of work AND a lot of fun, Tom. Once you get used to them, you enter an effortless flow. Like baking, wringing is very forgiving, and the rubber yields to the buttons rather than snapping them into your eyeballs.

Greg, waiting for the day when you get into Conventionals they way Combos are on the horizon for me.

Gentlemen, sorry for the delay; I was totally freaked out by Glenn. You know why if you've read the thread. I genuinely appreciate your taking time to talk to me. It is so nice to hear from people you've grown so fond of; that's the magic of this club.
 
Whatever is the studded top on the Kenmore's agitator for? Or was that a Freudian thing that managed to get by management?
 
Never brought it forward into consciousness, Phil, but it wa

It's a scrubber cap, or collar reamer, and you could hold your heavily soiled item up to the head and give it good rubbing. Originally, the Visi was missing her cap, and the uber-generous John, Coldspot66, had the kindness to send me a NIB Roto-swirl Scrubber Cap. I think of him every time I use the Lady.

Nice pix of both of you Scott. Is that our Roger? I almost know everyone now,
