Joe I say BRING IT! Someone will want to tinker with it. That IS after all, part of a Wash-In is (supposed to be) all about!!
What happened at my Wash-In 2 years ago, aside from EVERYTHING else: (photos) 1. Machines get inspected. 2. Machines get worked on, in this case three Kenmore washers had new bearings installed (NOT easy and only one was mine)! 3 thru 7. A 1957 Westinghouse Spacemate is brought back from the dead (thanks to the generous efforts of a number of guys who came to the Wash-In)!
So yes, bring it!

Actually, it was the phrase, "...having an open shower in that laundryroom..." that woke me up. I'm not really into gold, myself. Don't mind if other people are, though. |

Steve- I wish I would have known you wanted to go we could have shared a ride! I live in Mansfield and we could have gone together but it is too late for me to make arrangements now. Maybe next time. E-mail me if you get a chance. Jeb |

It will be a very hectic weekend for me.
I'm leaving Friday after work and won't get there until after the Friday evening festivities have concluded. I'll participate on Saturday and some Sunday, but I have to help some cousins in Pittsburgh to pick out new appliances for their home at some point. Dave PS: I'm bringing a Kenmore with a bad transmission if anyone wants to teach me how to rebuild it. I'm also bringing a spare transmission for it anyway. I'm also bringing the transmission out of a Maytag A702 in pieces because I can't get the !$$^#%@#$ O-ring to seat properly. I'd love to put ti back together. And laundry. I'll bring laundry of course. |

I came home tonight to find all laundry had been taken to the laundromat. My fault, really; I'd neglected to mention that actually washing clothes was part of a wash-in... Jim |

I won't make it today because I'll still be on the road. I cannot leave until after work. I'll plan on being there at noon tomorrow since that is what the schedule says.
I've got a 1981 Kenmore in the back of the car already with a waterlogged transmission I'd love to open up. I'll also bring a new-to-me transmission, sans water. I'll also be bringing the parts to a Maytag A702 transmission because I need a bit of expertise in installing the new O-ring. I'll have the base of that one with me as well because I cannot figure out how to disconnect the damper springs on the old-style base so I can replace the damper pads. I figure as long as I've got it apart this far, I might as well replace the pads :) Even if none of my little projects get touched, I'm looking forward to meeting people and, of course, a little laundry.
