I've often seen (and cringed at the sight of) 'Skinny Mini's' but this was one I HAVEN'T seen. An Agi-Tub! The agitator and tub are one piece so it will agitate the whole tub back and forth.

At work. I was wowed at how the agitation worked. Here's a little video... Embedded for MickeyD's enjoyment!

As the evening was winding down, the fun was still not quite done. Our own Chance decided to take advantage of Kevin's water softener and bake a 'cake' or three. Kevin already offered a picture of the A50, so I'll share with you the Wards-Westinghouse Cake. The video is pretty funny as we get to see flying suds during the spin...

Andy (RCD) also brought down the little portable GE washer (made by Hitachi) and everyone wanted to see this one work too. Here Andy is filling it manually (all of the available faucets were in use).

Since he had so much fun with the Westie, He then turned his sights on the poor, defenseless Frigidaire 1-18! I even asked him "Are you going to give that 1-18 the same treatment?" to which he gives me this innocent look and says "Of course not..." Uh Huh... I've heard that answer from my own kids enough to know better. Oh well, it's all fun!

At the end of the day, it was a pity it had to end!

A big, gigantic thank you to Kevin for hosting this event and inviting my wife and I to attend! I have always wanted to meet other members and put a face with a name with a screen name. I met so many wonderful people and it will be a memory to treasure. At some point, I'll have to do the same with our other members back East and points inbetween. THANK YOU, KEVIN!

That's so cool that with all those suds it didn't suds lock! Well I'm making it a point to make it to the next one! Great pics and video's guys!
 
Andy....the turqouise Kenmore set in the above pics are NOT

They are a 1963 Kenmore Model 70 washer and matching Soft Heat Dryer. My mother got this set in white as a newlywed in 1963. The only difference between her washer and this one was the fact that my mom's had the last of the pregnant Roto Swirls in it not a skinny ribbed one like what is in Kevin's machine.....PAT COFFEY
