Nicest Guy Award

Kevin, thank you for hosting and sharing an amazing event. It is nice to be able to enjoy it from afar even if drool does mess with my keyboard. I am especially gratified to see several of the disenfranchised having a good time. I grieve the losses in my own pointless way and honor the connections.
 
Greetings old friends! Thinking of you all! Really wish I could have attended, and looking forward to meeting each and every one of you tha tI have not yet met one day in person!
 
Thank you Kevin, and Andrew

for documenting your wash party so well. What a wonderful collection you have. I'll chime in and say how much I would have loved to be there as well. Best wishes.

Mike
 
Wash-In Washer Videos

I have successfully collected the three washer demos posted so far. I have a way of grabbing the original Youtube URL's and going from there. Thanks for sharing. Always watching to collect more for yet continued loads and loads of washing fun.--Laundry Shark
 
absolutely love your collection!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

that is a collection and a half! especially that little table top wringer, so cute!

and all the space you have! i'm terribly envious! it looks great and all the above pics are great! love how you put the ice and drinks in the wringer! and how you left the front off the 1-18.

that was a jouous appliance celebration, no doubt! LOVE YOUR PICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Thank you everyone!

It it took a lot to get everything in sync so this could all happen, but I'm very pleased it did! Yes it was really great to see my AW friends and to meet new ones! I wish more of you could have come!

It was also my pleasure to share photos of the event with all of you here, I really enjoy this website and AW.org is what inspired me to start my washer collection! Once I got all this set up for the party, I stepped back, looked and said "OMG, I where the hell did all these come from?? I CANNOT believe I have this many!" LOL

Cheers!
Kevin
 
I CANNOT believe I have this many...

Oh, by the way Kevin, did I tell you what I have to tempt you with NOW?!?!?

LOL!!! Now that I saw the area you have to work with, I'm SURE I can find a thing or ten for you... I'm gonna feel like the neighborhood appliance pusher standing on the corner... "Hey, Kevin, I got whacha need for your fix..." LOL!

Seriously, this weekend is one for me to remember for a very long time. I feel so honored to be part of such a successful Wash-In and truly humbled to see how your GE and 1-18's were such a hit. And to think how they were destined to go to the pile, and now, I can't think of a more deserving home. I met so many wonderful people and now have faces to go with the names.

Thanks for inviting us and making a Nevada repairman's dream come true!

Looks like it was major fun! All EQUIPMENT THERE LOOKS GOOD TO ME!

Pardon me, but I cannot keep my eyes off that Aqua 70 Series Kenmore Set! I wish Ladys would have had lit controls like those, those little lit ovals make those machines stand out in the crowd.
 
Hello Kevin! Hello Andy!

I see by the tilt of the control panel and the elevated screw that you were tinkering, and your giant spring has come undone. I'm talking about your beer bucket ;-> aka, the Easy Spin. Getting the panel spring back on an Easy, both front and back panels, is almost as tricky as getting the bellows back on, in a Unimatic. If you need help, just holler. One of the few things I know how to do.

Andy, do you have plans to post the Agi-tub video. The site has one under "See It Wash," but the turnover is disappointing while the overflow force is fabulous. So I'm dying to know if you achieved turnover, at the Cape Kevin washer launch.

Roger that...over and out!
 
A great time indeed!

Thanks again for your hospitality, Kevin! A great turn-out to see (and play with!) a fantastic collection! Wish I had as much room!

It was wonderful to meet some of the other members in person, and now be able to put a face to the screen name!
 
Hey guy's had no pc for several days long story anyway,
Kevin & Andy members you guy's look fantastic and like toggles said i hope we can all meet someday.
Kevin i would have a ball in that room love to do laundry in a sunny place how nice is that, aah you look real relaxed wringing your work shirt out... oooh yaa you belong here lol.
My dad had a skinny-mini in the 70's it was up stars in his apartment a bachelor again at this time , but when i visited him he would have company and i was watching and looking at this new weird agitator that was molded to a tub and had to see it work, so i washed everything in the house and finally learned how to bypass the switch in the back under the lid witch was hard but found it after five washes lol... Mike it does roll clothes nice and softly if not overloaded.
My friend in Rehobeth beach had one by my surprise and that one was sooooo loud but got the job done.
Kevin you said i put all the pics up, no here is the last one i had so there hmmm.
I hope the next time you have one i'll be there you and Andy did a great job !

What fun!

"He then turned his sights on the poor, defenseless Frigidaire 1-18!" Defenseless? That 1-18 kicked some serious cake butt! =)

Looks like an awesome time!!
 
MickeyD, the only one I had is embedded up above under Frigidaire Laundry Center... I admit that I should have shot more video... I'll plead insanity due to too much fun... I've actually gotten some requests for further video of this AgiTub in a wash AND spin but all pleadings will have to go to Kevin for him to shoot unless I aquire one some day...

I am surprised that the mastermind behind the sudscakes hasn't shown himself yet. Frapdoodle, you need to come up for air from that A50 you pried from Kevin's hands and take a bow... LOL!

My Bad, RCD--sorry.

I didn't see the video till just now, and the turnover looks rapid, so we did indeed have ignition and launch. It sounds strong and efficient just like a Frigidaire should.

Thanks again.

Funny you should mention Chance. I was going to say yesterday, joking, "that is, if any turnover is visible anywhere, after all of Chance's blinding sudscakes." ;'D

Cape KevAndrew, over and out! The joke is so dumb, I know, Cape Canaveril (sp) Cape Kennedy, etc, but I can't help myself. Pray for me.
