1930's Savage Washing Machine in action

[@dinarusso3320]

I would totally buy one of those if they still made, that's a great machine!

[@DragonbaneETHEREAL]

Hell yea! I know this is 12 years later, but this washer is amazing for 90 years! I don’t think another washing machine can last that long.

[@jamesnicholson3313]

Boy I can well remember this machine, my aunty had one in the town of Cootamundra NSW, she was rather rotund at the time and when spin dry would come she had to sit on top to stop it from dancing across the laundry floor. Jim from AUSTRALIA.

[@dinarusso3320]

It was probably a lot better than hand washing at the beginning of the 20th century though and the spin cycle too

[@t0nito]

It's like a top loader and a front loader at the same time!

[@dixond1926]

My parents had a Savage machine like this in Sydney AU, I think bought the year I was born (1926). The bowl was aluminium & had two positions, shaft vertical & shaft at 45 degrees. The feet of the unit were fitted with ball ends which sat in steel cups concreted into the laundry floor. The machine was still useable after repairs to the bowl in 1947 - new machines were hard to get for long after WW2 & were not spin dryers.

[@BJsTrashChannel]

1926? you still alive?

[@f.l.1962]

God bless you.

[@hassanger8128]

are you still alive?? You should be 94 years by now. I hope so!

[@chavitavb]

Damn! The years Just fly by. I hope you’re still with us today. If you aren’t, well at least we got some history left here with us.

[@tennillej9601]

Damn hope your still here ❤ something tells me you aren't

[@blanchehudson6583]

That's got to be the coolest washer that I have ever seen! Thank's for all of your shows I REALLY enjoy them......

[@Leenightwolf]

Nice I like it and whoever thought of that idea is a pure genius.

[@nintendy]

FABULOUS Machine! Thanks for sharing!

[@MrOwwl]

these washers should make a comeback I would damn well get one

[@Mike-01234]

These machines must have been wonderful to the user in the early 20th century after years of hand washing cloths.

[@f.l.1962]

I think it washes better than many today shits.

[@NLove-vn7hk]

Awesome. My Grandmother had one of these in the '20s-'30s. My Grandfather thought wringers were dangerous (even I have heard plenty of horror stories, and they were extinct by the time I came along), so he didn't want my Grandmother to have a wringer washer, and bought this instead. I never saw it, but it exactly fits my father's description of his mother's washer, and I recognized it immediately. Coincidentally, my mother's mother never had a wringer washer, either. She always had an Easy Spindrier. I always thought it was an interesting coincidence that in a world where wringer washers were supreme, both of my Grandmothers never had one, but instead always had washers with a spin-dry. Thank you very much for this video.

[@samuelfellows6923]

Weird that your granddad thought that wringer/mangles were dangerous, particularly that powered ones had safely release mechanisms if you got your fingers into it - spin dryers, without lid/lid interlock are far more dangerous than a wringer in comparison; you/an idiot could twist your arm off if you stupendously put your hand in it when it was spinning to get the laundry out.

[@NLove-vn7hk]

@@samuelfellows6923 There were lots of stories of injuries and accidents with wringer washers, and even my parents thought they weren't as safe as spin dry washers. My parents always had automatic washers and dryers. Another reason both my grandmothers had spin dry washers was because ironing was better with the spin dry washers. My mother said nothing put wrinkles into clothes like a wringer. They all vastly preferred spin dry washers.

[@DMahalko]

Apparently this is the first-ever spin-dry water/extractor without a wringer. There was also a period of time that "extractors" also existed as a separate third appliance. First use the washer/agitator machine, then move to the extractor machine, then move to the clothes line or tumble dryer.

[@anthonylawrence60]

what a simple yet effective .i wonder if its possible to do a load of washing spin it so that the water ends up back in the tub then load up for another wash in the same water

[@samuelfellows6923]

Saving the suds 😉, you would then have to put that load aside for the rinses

[@peptidegirl]

Awesome. Thanks for sharing!

[@joa8593]

So basically a European-style top loader. They still make them basically like this over there except they load through the drum and spin horizontally

[@05cr125rider]

That thing makes a wringer washer look high tech !

[@astarisborn9820]

The original front load washing machine! 🤩🤩🤩🤩

[@keithlewis9106]

Chuck, I just received a Savage washer and dryer, but missing the motor and mounting, I trying to see what it looks like . So, any help on this will be graceful, thank you.

[@dke388209]

Maybe look up the patent? It usually has drawings.

[@gregorymalchuk272]

Any progress putting it back together?

[@keithlewis9106]

@@gregorymalchuk272 , no , as I am still look for what drove the washer. My mother said it was gasoline motor , but other I seen are electric.

[@fyneyoungstunna]

If you look up vintage Maytag on here for the guy that restored it, it will show you the engine. It basically looks like a predator engine from harbor freight

[@ptlovefit]

that's a neat lil washer It must really be some extra steps to use Cool video thanks!

[@ukickmeikicku]

Maybe the first front loader ever?!

[@markfurrer190]

wish i had one for my 1936 house…..ive never seen one for sale…..

[@kellysavage7073]

this is cool this machine has my last name sweet

[@jamesdavis2231]

Love this!

[@gbandyno]

Oh yeah we had one just much bigger.we call it cement mixer ...good video ,I like it

[@erinhilliard9347]

This is so cool

[@MichaelNelson-y9n]

Any one of a top available for this ?

[@DrGreenfun]

Where is the on off switch I just got one

[@carleneboulden4386]

Good vid! What's the other silver machine you have there?

[@compu85]

I imagine that actually does a good job cleaning the clothes, without beating them up.

[@lightingkid2010]

what kinda roasts it tells you ?

[@owneddiagonal]

Damn now I know what that thing was in the cellar we had in our old house. Always wondered what the hell that thing is. Though the house was maybe 1980 or so. Were those still around then?

[@chuckdilts]

I doubt these were made for very long, but someone could have moved it with them to the '80's house.

[@markfurrer190]

what is the other machine behind the savage……...

[@diogiparlin957]

This was from back when things were made to last.

[@driver2909]

Thank you!,

[@globallaundryandgeneralequ7163]

I want this technique

[@globallaundryandgeneralequ7163]

Please send inside video

[@suzancollier9518]

The original front loader design

[@arkansastrash320]

You could put an inline valve in the drain hose and not have to reach into the main tub any more and be alot easier.But that would not work with drain pipes higher than the washer unless you just drain it in the yard !!! I never in my life seen a washer like that before i guess it was the frist manual front loader

[@leonardleejr1734]

Nice

[@chuckdilts]

Glad ya like it!!!
