Flight 1115 to Control Tower... Come in Control Tower

[toploader55]

Sunday started off to be a little "Hum Drum".

 

Drinking coffee, reading the Forums, thinking about "What do I want to do today ?"

 

Got a Text from a friend who was "sperimentin'" with some new laundry soap and having a blast.

 

Cut through the chase, decided to take a ride over the Bridge and off the Sandbar.

 

Well Well, Lookie here...

Yup...

 

The Sheer Look has arrived on Good Ol' Cape Cod.

East Coast Head Quarters and Dr. Frigidaire rounded up the posse for a quick 20 minute flight.

 

Minty, Minty, Minty !!!

Dr. Frigidaire, Mr. Coldspot66, and Moi, had a delightful day in the suburbs of Boston.

 

Might I add, the Original Germicidal Lamp is still there and everything looks great for takeoff soon. So... "No Polio on Cape Cod".

 

Right now The Tower is hiding out in the Secret Annex Storage Facility which I cannot disclose presently.

 

We had a nice Induction Lunch followed by JennAire-Jet Clean Dishes, a few laughs with Felix and a romp with the Fringidaire.

 

Thanks for a great day Doc and as always good laughs and good times.

 

More "stuff" later...

Now comes the Quest...

 

Finding that Hen's Tooth.... A Control Tower Unimatic for the Complete-Total Sheer Look on the Cape.

 

Or send the WO65-2 to the "Chop Shop" and add a Tower. LOL

Glad you guys saved this beauty! It does look minty clean, but that Filtrator lint likes to hide. Have fun with it, a great winter dryer.

dryer, the washer will come!! 

Hey anybody out there that has a set of Radian tubes for Eddie's baby?? Contact me. We need to get him Filtrating again- winter is coming and it will keep him warm!!

[jetcone]

RUNNNNNNSSSSSSSSSSSS....

[philr]

Nice to know you got it Eddie! 

 

[jetcone]

Paul I

Installed your radian tube today. Gotta double check wiring before I test it. thanks for the reminder !!!

Filterater Heater Wiring

Wire them in parallel, not series Jon.

 

[turquoisedude]

YAY Jon! I am so glad I saw your post about needing one!!

 

[jetcone]

Yes got a shot from Coldspot66

about the wiring, my question was the control thermostat John, it is wired totally differently in the 1958 machines - but is the same as the 1956 machines. You can see in #4 that when the tube was dying it drew too much current and stressed the contacts causing them to corrode compared to the ones on the right. It also caused the wire from the thermostat to the element to melt and sever.

Am confused

Which member's dryer needs a new heating tube? Jetcone's or Eddie's? Thought the seller of Eddie's unit said it was running very hot and that is why he was selling? How could it do so without proper heating elements?

 

[jetcone]

No Launderess

my machine was down one unit and I swiped out Eddies since he didn't have plans to use his machine right away. 
Then Turquoisedude gently reminded me that he had given me a new tube from Modern Parts House which I had totally forgotten. So in went the new tube into my machine and its humming along wonderfully now, and Eddies tubes go back in this weekend. His machine is actually less use than mine was and that was LOW !!

He's got a stunner there. And he'll be toasty warm all winter now! - Bastard !!!
