My Summer of Vintage Washer Rubber Reproduction

[joelippard]

I had heard that you had been working on this Robert and I think its wonderful.  When you're ready to sell, I'm ready to buy!

Those turned out fantastic! The colors are beautiful.

 

[thomasortega]

Wow! That's REALLY impressive.

Beautiful job!

When you're ready I'll take a few Kenmore scrubber caps! Just let me know the cost and when! Superb Robert!

Custom reproduction rubber parts

These look wonderful Robert I definitely will order a turquoise scrubber cap for my 64 Lady Kenmore pair that is turquoise. I think that would look great on it.

$75 each is a bargain for these items you would never be able to get it made any cheaper than that unless you ordered a huge quantity from a Chinese supplier.

Robert, let me know when you have one available, thanks

Truly gorgeous

What you've been able to achieve is nothing short of outstanding, amazing, and otherwise so impressive. I am excited for what comes next!

Jaw dropping work Robert! They look beautiful!

I would also be interested in a turquoise cap for a kenmore, when you are ready to start selling.

Take My Money!

I'll need a complete set for my '58 Unimatic and some Kenmore caps too. Once you nail down pricing, I'll order some.

Thank you for creating these parts & allowing our machines & the technology to live on!

So I have all the GE Filter-Flo Mounts made that were requested along with the Turquoise scrubbers, now onto the Original Gray and Gold scrubbers for the rest of the week. For anyone who is interested here is the process of making a gray Kenmore Scrubber cap...

Incredible...

Robert-

I always knew you were talented and motivated, but this is something I never expected.

I too will be interested in purchasing many of these parts.

My hat is off to you!

Interesting process

Kind of reminds me of a "mad scientist's" laboratory. I didn't realize there was that much involved.

Amazing work !

Is it possible to make bigger parts such as front loader door seals with this process ?

Is it possible to make bigger parts such as front loader door seals with this process ?

Yes as long is it fits into the pressure pot. One thing to keep in mind a mold the size of a front loading door boot will probably cost at minimum $700 to make and unfortunately molds fail occasionally and you have to do it all over. I was making the 1961-1962 Frigidaire detergent cap and had a mold failure which means I had to do it all over, thankfully the 2nd attempt worked.

1956-1957 Cap and Rings now finished and look so nice in the 1957 Control Tower...
