The Rollermatic mechanism was put into the 1-18 unaltered in 1970. Technically, there’s 5 mechanisms Frigidaire used, technically 4. The whole reason Frigidaire went to the 1-18 design is solid tub machines were about done around this time along with the larger capacity machines that began to gain traction around this time.

If memory serves me correctly, the 1/18 was driven with a belt and rollers while the Rollermatic was driven strictly by rollers only.

I think, but some of the components that were on the Rollermatic were also used on the 1-18.

correct

1-18 washers used a belt.

I wonder how much it would cost to ship that Frigidaire set to Hawaii? I bet you've thought about it!

I see. Didn’t you have that one 1963 Frigidaire Multimatic years ago?

True. OTOH many of us aren't getting any younger and sooner or later things will have to go.

Collectors of all sorts from fine art to automobiles and so forth often make a decision to sell off bits or everything. This more so if part of scheme of "getting one's affairs in order" so to speak.

Hi Kevin really sorry to hear you can’t take your fantastic collection with you. Not sure if you remember me and my partner Spencer, we visited you a good few years ago when you kindly invited us to see your collection. We were vacationing in Palm Springs from Sydney Australia at the time. I took loads of pictures. I was sooo jealous of your amassing collection. Good luck with the move and for the future. Simon
Just checked photos and it was Feb 2012. Longer than I thought. [this post was last edited: 10/11/2024-19:43]
