Actually that Lint button is not a light.......
but inside it there is a mechanical red flag that pops up to show you when the lint screen needs cleaning. To reset the flag you push the button.....This is according to a Sears repair manual I have covering dryers of that era....I beliee the kind Appnut talks about are only found on Lady Kenmore Dryers....if anyone else can shed more light on the matter please feel free to do so.........PAT COFFEY

Is That A Ghost?

In that picture above, did anyone else notice this? It is in the middle of the picture. It looks like a man's face wearing a white dress shirt, a black tie, and possibly a suit.

I don't know of any ghosts, if there are, they are friendly. Tx applitguy, you are right, the lint thing is a button, not just a light. matt
The "Lint Thing" is a button. On my '73 Lady Kenmore dryer it would shift from yellow to orange as the lint built up on the filter. It almost looked like an oil based system when you looked closely at the button. You have to push it to reset it. It did not light up.

Interesting bit about the lint indicator. When I first saw the pic, I thought, "it adds lint?"

The life I want!
Hello Matt ... your set-up with the shop down and living space up is just what I dream about! Real estate prices are so expensive in the Greater Vancouver area that this will never happen for me here. However, if I was to move elsewhere, perhaps I really could do something like that! I'd love to have a restoration shop where I could work on all sorts of projects: antique furniture, appliances, books.

Matt's shop burned in late 2010 or early 2011.

Oh no! That's a tragedy!
Thanks, Bob (appnut), for sharing the news. I did not know that - but now, I see what he has written on his profile makes sense. Such a loss!

OUCH! THAT'S HORRIBLE!
Nothing good could have come of that. It's bad enough when a fire gets your home OR your business. When it gets BOTH!, HOLY SHIT that is the worst. My deepest sympathy!

A fire and a divorce
I am getting back in the saddle. Here is my new shop. It does lack charm, but the traffic is good. It has been a tough couple of years. Thank you to all of you, I love you all : )

Best of success and happiness to you, Matt!
Glad to see you're starting up again! Can't keep a good man down, right? All the best with the new operation! (Maybe you need an old wringer washer at the entrance as a prop???)

Matt, you have made my day at least. It's so good to see you have risen from the ashes and back at it again. A good looking shop for sure. You will add more charm to it as time goes on. Bob
