More Frigidaire WO-65-2 Action

[westytoploader]

This time with a set of sheets, 2 pillowcases, and 2 pillow shams! I could probably fit more in to reduce tangling, but they didn't come out in knotted ropes this time! And naturally, they were dry in less than 35 minutes!

Glenn, Bob, Bryan...get ready for some Unimatic washing in December!!

Whats all this talk about tangling---------?

I seem to remember a discussion we had on this topic. If you really want to see what a rope she can make set her for the longest wash time possible!!!! The only thing I know of that can make a better rope is a slant-front "Rustinghouse"! Oooops!

And whats all this about a December

Inquiring Steves want to know--------------!

Hi Steves, (LOL)

I'll go ahead forward the emails to you since y'all are interested.

Throw in a couple long sleeve shirts with those sheets and you'll have an escape rope...not that you'll need one in a ranch house, but who knows!

Great fun, Austin - thanks for the pics!

Your not the only one that has a Hoover Constellation I also
have one that was given to me by a friend that is a teacher where I am a Custodian at the school where I work. It works very well and all I had to replace on it was the on and off switch which I replaced myself. I also replaced the filter on it with a filter for a shop vac and cut it to fit. It works really well and has great suction. I got my hoover last year toward the end of school. Have fun with yours as these are great vacs. Best Wishes and Happy Thanksgiving!
your friend (Norgeman), Dan

Hi Austin, great pictures as always! I'm glad you are enjoying your Unimatic.

Austin, can u send me an email with details on the washin? I'd love to go.

Great photos, Austin! I couldn't tell from the control dial---does this machine do 2 deep rinses or had they gone to 1 by that time? I seem to recall that a few early Frigidaires did 2 deep rinses. The earliest Frigidaire I've seen operate is a '58. It would be cool to see an earlier model in action.

Great machine and pictures Austin.
There's nothin' like a Rapidry is there!

Jason, I'm sending the "events" emails to you as well...hope you can make it as it will definitely be fun. Might want to bring the camera too

I'm going to have more time to work on machines in the next few weeks, and get the Dual-Tumble, Dispensall, and (hopefully after a thorough cleaning and going-over) the '68 Kenmore installed in the shed.

The DD Kenmore is too new (LOL), and I can't do anything with the '82 until I can hit the graveyards and find a control panel that works. If I do, then we can watch the Penta-Vane agitator.

I will definitely bring the camera. Thanks, I'll be waiting for the info.

Nice detailed photos of a great classic Frigidaire Austin.Thank you for sharing those fantastic shots!
I load my sheets like you do in all my machines,except for the Filter-Flo. It is the only machine that won't tangle sheets into a big mess if they are wound around the Activator.
