Austin - that model 66 was Terry's, we were getting ready to go to FedEx - you can't see my "pile" of vacuums & parts on the other side of the patio. Terry had two or three boxes and I had seven! Save me a bed in the booby-hatch, Rosie, I'm coming!
I've been very busy lately and can hardly keep up with the interesting threads on this site. I'm glad I found the time now to watch the pictures and read the comments. What a wonderful event and what beautiful pictures. Thank you all for sharing. Tucson is so far away from here, but you really made it a bit closer with sharing the pictures. Yay for wash-ins!
So all of that white flaky mess on the black sheet came from just 3 people decorating? Somehow I find that hard to believe and that there were MANY more involved...LOL. David, your Bob-load comment had me ROARING! I guess with the sheer volume, it could be considered a 'Bob-load' in these circumstances.
On a more serious note, it's interesting how the Unimatic which cleans amazingly under normal circumstances (only machine that could remove those strange dark spots I had on my shirts a while back), loses its effectiveness immediately after the load becomes tangled. I'm assuming the sheet(s) were loaded correctly? I still think it's strange because I've done sheets all the time in my machine without any problem, and they come clean. Well, at least I *think* they come clean. Then again, I've never dealt with the 'donut icing' problem either, ha!
Maybe you guys would have had better luck with the Unimatic by pre-treating with this?
