How will you dry these after wringing? I have been line drying for the last 3 years. It has saved ALOT of money. I also find it relaxing and there is no better smell in the world than fresh air line dried laundry-you just cant beat it.

I have a clothes horse and plastic hangers. The weather here was cold and cloudy so I hang everything indoors. I use a clothes line in the spring and summer the clothes smell so fresh I just love it. Thanks for the great comment 😃😃 Tim

@@timkessler4894 Yeah winter time can be tough thats for sure. I will hang outdoors even in the 20s-30 degrees. Sometimes I leave them out overnight and they will get a stronger outdoor scent. But when there is a deep freeze we have to string a line in front of the wood stove in the house or drape them over the stove pipes. Havent had a dryer in over 3 years one of the best decisions yet.

@lookingback6314 where I live I can't do that leave them overnight they would be gone. I don't want to put them out there and have to bring them back in because they are frozen like cardboard waste of time but I am glad you can do that I don't ever use my dryer waste of energy. Thanks for the great comment. Tim 😃😃

Hi Tim, Im in the market for one of these and I notice that people talkna out which loads to do first. I heard its 1. Least dirty first, then most dirty. 1. White cloes first then colors. Is this because youre only filling the washer up once?

@timkessler4894 Ай бұрын

Yes I wash clean whites first and then the white towels and the colored towels and then medium colors I wash the blue jeans last because they bleed and it makes the water last longer. I can wash all the clothes in one batch of water which really saves money. Thanks for the great question. Tim

I was wondering if you may know what would cause the bottom roller on the wringer to not work? the top roller spins fine but the bottom roller wont spin

@timkessler4894 Ай бұрын

I hope your gears in the wringer head are not warn out. Is the bottom roller not turning when you turn the control handle to either direction? Please let me know. Tim

@timkessler4894 Ай бұрын

If the bottom roller is not turning you may have to order a wringer head complete part #A4746 from cottage craft works because if the gears are gone it is a good way to go. Tim😃

@@timkessler4894 we figured out what was wrong with it after watching another youtube video. it had a safety mechanism in it that was missing a piece so we bypassed it by taking the safety mechanism out and replacing it with a bolt and that worked. now both of my wringers are working. I just bought this wringer washer today and am super excited to have it. I will have to replace the drain hose because it is leaking

Using a wringer washer requires a lot of manual labour, is it any wonder our ancestors ran for the automatics as they aged. With your heart surgery also taking on a role, because it takes a year or so to recover. I was amazed how fast you bounced back when I saw your first video after your surgery.

@timkessler4894 4 ай бұрын

The machine takes a 90 weight gear oil you can get it at Tractor supply it comes in a quart bottle. The oil probably leaked from the winger post these machines should not be transported on there side that will happen unless you taped the vent hole. Tim 😃

Summer is here and the majority of folks just want to be out and about enjoying the weather and back to living their lives as normal.

Hi Tim hope you are doing well i just Love your Videos showing us all about The Best Washing Machine ever Build And you use so wonderfully . I have a ? how long does it take to wash a load and does every clothing require a different time to wash like 5 or more pair of jeans how long will you keep it in . as washing sheets may take less time as the material is much thinner then jeans. just a ? i have i will love to own a Maytag as well . thnk u Tim for all your Uploads you sooth my soul watching the vintage art of using a Maytag it is a incredible washer they ways things used to be slower paste more hands on touching all the clothing you put in the washer .i wish we can all go back to a slower more peaceful time again and things like the Maytag washers where meant to last. Unbelievably Beautiful to look at the Maytage still alive after all these yrs it will out do any washer today and as we all can see it will out last any computer crap washer of today . Love it
