Automatic Washer - The world's coolest Washing Machines, Dryers and Dishwashers

Help Support AutomaticWasher.org:

Thanks for the vids MickeyD. that was a whirlwind tour of many machines. Late Happy Thanksgiving to you. arthur
 
Those are absolutely wonderful videos Mike. The fill hose on the WO-65 is an easy fix, take the hose off and take it to Ace hardware, they sell hose on the roll of the correct size that should fit. Probably a clear braided hose will match that size.

Question, what kind of camera did your friend use to film, the video quality was just wonderful? Be sure to click the HD button on the bottom right of the player when watching them.
 
Mornin' Pals

Robert: It's a brand new camera, thirty-four hundred bucks, I'll ask him later, but think it's a Hitachi, or something Japanese. There's an Ace right in the village on my bike route. I'll snip a braid today. Thanks and THANKS.

Thanks, Eddie, I bet your hose-above-the-valve works better than mine:'D

Anything for you Gordon ;-> Hey, are those rub-a-dub sounds on the Lady K, Okay

Hey Arthur!!! "Air..." Whirlwind, you got it, Man. Figures. Thanks
 
thirty-four hundred bucks

Well we can forget then! lol Although I would be interested to hear the brand and model of camera anyway.
 
Wedding Crashers and Denny

Wonderful Robert and Fabulous Eddie:

Denny is a young budding professional who films weddings on weekends for a living, so this is like his job, and he's also studying film and is in class right now, but I'm surprised he hasn't gotten back to me.

Of course you all know I hallucinate--both visually AND audio-phonically(?) , but I could have sworn I heard him say 34 hundred. He's a former student who's kept in touch and he always went for the gold so I'm not surprised he bought the best camera out there.

34 dollars??? 34 thousand? I better stick that unimatic power hose in my ear. I'll have all the specs as soon as he calls, stops, or emails.
 
Brisk biking today; northeastern snow is on the way, record-

The camera is a Panasonic HMC 150
from B&H Photo & Video in NYC
purchased on-line from their website

He did say thirty-four hundred which stuck in my mind--so much mooluh!-- but smart cookie that he is, he had it sent to a friend just over the border in PA, sixty miles away, avoiding the exorbitant NY sales tax. The final price was $3330 on the nose.

Pete, Thanks for the wonderful email. You're so welcome. I'll call you soon.
 
Thanks for the videos, Mike. Awesome...love your machines. My aunt an her family lived on Prospect Ave in Hamburg NY. We would visit them every year. She has an Easy spindrier.
 
Another working Easy in the neighborhood--that's awesome

Small world: you can ride up Prospect a huge cut-through-the-village street to get to South Park where the Ace Hardware Store is. Thanks, Rich. Happy Holidays, Man!
 
Mike - great presentation! I personally don't like the idea of being filmed and talking to people, so I'm glad to see that you are.

Your machines are wonderful - love the '62. Two things about the pulsator that Mark sent. Make sure it has a D shape hole to fit over the pulsator shaft. It if does, measure the height of the original vs. the replacement. Even though it may be smaller in diameter than the original it should work as functional replacement. The original rubber 5432199 replacement is getting hard to find.

Well, Ben I took a risk and lost my pants but no one's n

Up off the couch from a nap and right in front of the camera. Excited and a little wired for the risk involved in going public, I forgot to show a WO Suds-return and a spray rinse, two main objectives of filming in the first place. Worse, I didn't even wash and tighten up my mug nor brush my hair, and hey, it ain't Hollywood, but sheesh, no grooming!!!!

Bingo! Ben,there is a D in the hole, but the diameter being smaller is inconsequential. Thanks for saving me from further searching. This should work fine. The height is right.

I love the 62, too. It makes so many cool sounds that it rivals a Kenmore, it has a speed selector, and the "Wash-n-Wear" cycle is unique and programmed.

Great job on the video clips! Thanks for showing us your wonderful collection!

I personally can't stand to hear myself talk, so hats off to you for recording both video and audio.
 
More weird than hearing yourself talk is watching yourself e

It is VERY humbling, Dan, and thank you for your kindness, and I really appreciate it, but I'm freaking out right now about the Easy. Go see the it in the thread just below and make sure you scroll all the way down to the row of pictures.

It is almost unbelievable!
 
Indeed, mickeyd...excellent video clips of a passionate person discussing and sharing their passion! No need to apologize for anything! It is what it is, and you is what you is, and it's all groovy!
 
"you is what you is"

Plato and Socrates WISH they could have said it so memorably. You made my belly wiggle, Charbee, and my heart thump. Thank you, Sweetheart!
 
Thanks for these Movies

I was successful in converting and combining these into one file through online.movavi.com. The combined converted file turned out really well for me.--Laundry Shark
 
Sorry, I posted and it didn't show up.

Waited, still no show, checked everything, waited some more, still nothing. So I wrote it again--well, almost-- and they both appeared. First time it's happened.

Ah! Cyberspace ;->
 
Mickey,
Great video's. Super clear. It was almost like I was there.
I had the same problem with my unimatic. The hose split. Just take the hose off and take it to your local auto parts store. They will measure and give you the same diameter hose. Easy to replace.
For your rising hose ( we should all have such problems) put a weight on it and stop giving it so much Viagra.
 
Washerama HE...In HD...!!

Hey Mickey, lovely washa commentary, great to see just how all your machines sit & hang together, I thought they where just courtesy of the porch area!!!

That drain hose on the Unimatic acts just like the Hoover twinny, ready to jump up and lash a load of water all over you and the utility room...Lol

I can see why the vids look so clear, with the HD camera and pro lens they look like you are realtime viewing them!!

All you need now is the Easy Twinny with the see thru sides and get your cameraman to come back & shoot it!!!

Cant believe it was over a year ago I gotten to ride shotgun with you!! we need a twinny trippin experience soooonnn!!!!

cheers, Mike

Three of my favorite people all in a row--"How sweet it

Mikey, Mikey, yeah it was just over a year ago--long overdue for another trip.

The washers have rebelled against winter accommodations on the deck; the Unimatic led the strike with multiple wounds to his arteries, after spending an Arctic winter there. So now all machines sleep in the kitchen, basement, or garage.

Given up on the glass Easy, opting for Plan B--finding a glass/collision man to do the deed on my own Easy. Nice tease with the SS impeller& tub next to my cheap yellow plastic one;'D

Great to hear from you. How cool that the man just on top of you Jim Frigiman was with us at Canton too.

JIM, you're too funny, as usual--Viagra indeed. How are you, Man? I'm on the hose but the clamp on top just before the elbow into the fill flume is one I can't yet figure out. It looks like a wide wedding ring with the middle band removed. Never seen the likes of it.

EUGENE, "my hat's off to you," and your cat's paw is down with that, cool pic, but how I wish it were your mug and not a meow puss. Are you still cookin' up a storm and generating a load of "bar mops." Missed you very much.

Thank you, Gentlemen. What a huge treat for me to see you all at once.
 
MickeyD,

You really outdid yourself this time! Those videos are definitely your best ones yet. The Custom Imperial is to die for! Thanks so much for the "homage" to the GE mini-basket. I have to say that isn't so much a "mini" basket in your huge GE! That sucker is big! Gosh I love those things!

Thanks again!

Jon
