I was at Manny's shop today and took some pictures. Here is Blackstone still being worked on.

Bendix

It is really something to see that Bendix taken apart like that. Gives me hope that mine can be repaired no matter what may go wrong with it.

Who is Manny? Is his shop a regular appliance repair shop or does he specialize in older appliances?

Kevin, I think I am correct in all of this, but Ross can clean up the minor flaws. Manny is this jewel of a man Ross came across. I believe he owns/runs a machine shop in Tucson. Anyway, he performs miracles on all the machines Ross finds and geets them back up & running in pristine condition. Ross, and all of us too now, affectionately all him Dr. Manny and where he works on the machines, we call the hospital.

Hi Kevin. Manny or "Dr Manny" as I call him has appliance repair shop here in Tucson. He works on my washers since I do not know how to fix them myself.
