Hey fellas,
As some of you know, I'm a 5th grade teacher (at least for now, but that's another story) and am starting to plan my lessons for the days after the spring standardized testing that have taken over our 21st century education (yet another story). I was thinking I might do a story on the evolution of clothes/washing one day. I've got my great (x3) grandmother's spinning wheel, my grandmother's washboard, and my great-aunt's wringer. If you make it hands on, you make it fun. That said, if I take the wringer to school it's going to have to go on it's side in my van. I remember from when I moved it here (same van) that a little oil spilled out of the machine. Is there something I can plug to prevent oil leakage? I don't have access to a truck, but I thought it would be fun. Help!
Thanks fellas!
