At least that is the color/shade I am calling it!

Very impressive work Bud! Super cool that you've been able to make such great reproduction Frigidaire agitator parts.

Big Shout Out To ....

Tomturbomatic for lending me his pristine Circulator Ring!

And here is my copy. Not bad if I say so myself

But seriously, molds for '58-59 and '61-62 now complete. Just waiting on the one year only '60 cap to get here in the mail so I can make that mold.

Cheers!

Now, if we can just get that Pulsator for the WO-65-2  to cast, some of us can be using our machines again.

Bud, you did awesome work!

Hey Tom ....

The stuff dreams are made from right here! With original box even!

A giant shout out to Ben on this pulsator and the previous one he let me borrow!!

I am thrilled and grateful for this latest addition to Bud's Frigidaire rejuvenation and restoration effort and to all of the people making Pulsator washing possible again.

Don't forget about Frigidaire Black!

Cheers!

Beautimous! I always thought that the ring on those machines was more of the lint chaser ring since it does create the hole in the suds doughnut and did splash water out to the tub wall when the overflow rinse was introduced in the WO-65-2, but maybe mine suffered the agitator version of what ladies used to call "panty crawl up" and is in a higher position than it was originally intended to be. 

 

There used to be a comic strip/gag panel by Jimmy Hatlo called "They'll Do It Every Time" in the Sunday Funnies which had a few blocks of varying sizes on varying subjects. I remember one where the origin of the Seventh Inning Stretch was explained. It showed a woman standing and a woman behind her pointing at her saying that she just stood up because she needed to tug down her girdle.
