Can I still be a member if I don't have any washer parts in the dining room, but how about organ parts? Lots of pipes in 3 corners awaiting installation. I do have washer parts in the kitchen though. Gary

Hee hee!

Pete, I love the vase. I really should contemplate accentuating stuff that way!

Dan, I love it, but what's that Custom Imperial thing? I don't recall Maytag ever making any of those. ;-)

Roger, all three of the transmission bolts required a hammer strike to get out to the last thread. I realized as I was removing them that I was basically using the tranny hub as a die to rethread them .

The hub is spectacularly corroded but structurally okay--they must have had nasty water, cheap detergent, or probably, both.

The POR-15 is curing as we speak...

Hey Nate, old buddy, can kitchen machines count?

When I get living room plumbing, I'll join you guys. Fabulous stuff

Dan, that white one in the front row is my favorite dryer of all time. We had the gas model. It was a gem, so easy to use, and performed efficiently and flawlessly until one day the drum froze up.

gary, i hear from mike that you

can play with that organ of your's quite well!!!

as for the vase there are two and they came from "old time pottery" store here in cinti. their names are pete and gladys cause i bought the one then decided i wanted another. went back and finally found the only one like in the store but employee (named gladys) threw a fit when i asked to buy it as she was making a floral arrangement in it. i asked her to simply take the paper flowers out and sell me the vase and she threw a bigger fit! i called the manager and asked him to do it, he did, all the while gladys was complaining in the background about how she worked so hard on that arrangement and i was ruining her work! my friend who was with me told her it didn't even look that great to start, that made her even more mad! i reminded the manager that his store was there to sell things, to people, namely me in this case. people (me) who want to buy an overpriced peice of tin! he agreed and i heard gladys tell him as i left that if it was up to her she would not have sold it to me!

so i named them pete and gladys, one for her, one for me! and they sit on my frigidaires with fake flowers in them!

It pulled a fast one and snuck in there, attempting to imitate the clam shell control panel of the 806's, lol. I'll be bringing another dryer home of the HOH variety with a lighted console (don't want to ruin the surprise just yet). I think Mr. Frigidaire is beginning to shake in his boots. He may be kicked out of his cozy climate controlled home and be up for sale soon in order to make some room. I'll have to decide if there's going to be a third row of appliance or not.

You must have had a DG806. I quit using all of my HOH dryers earlier this year until I figured out how to tear the units all the way down to the drum bushings for a lubing/seal replacement. Even though I have several drum bushing kits, I didn't want to to end up with a frozen drum, like your situation. RCD schooled me in that department a couple of weeks ago, so now the fun begins!

You got appliances in every room in the house

You got 7 washers in one laundry room and have to go outside to change your mind

Betty Draper and I just redrekorated

It's the hearth! It's the soul of the home, everyone wants to gather around the fire even if there isn't one. Don, you evaluate objects all day long at work, I want your eye here.

LOL! Put the other two-tone agitator on the sofa. I'm off to work.

 

[oldwasherguy]

I have one washer in the dinning room and the rest are in the garage.

Gotta love that black Powerfin. Growing up with an A206 Maytag I never really knew how unique it was until I joined this club. Thanks for posting the pics.

Have a good one,
James
