At last, ready for it's closeup!(and in production since December 26th) The leak at the tub hose and homespun water valve adapter has been stopped. Took it off the wheels, put the legs from my 1960 W dryer on as they are the same, in much better shape and I plan on keeping the dryer on wheels.
There is still a leak at the door bottom I have to look at, and the pullies on the new GE motor make a rattling sound, even with the belts disconnected so it must be them (bad karma from the GE motor or George Westinghouse himself playing tricks?) Now the next project is the 1960 W dryer blower fan assembly, then I will be doing laundry just like its 1961! Thanks to Greg (Glomain) for saving it, John L for parts and advice, Nate(Roto204) for the door boot and everyone for watching this saga. It will be ready for the wash-in! How Mommie Dearest resisted this as a Westinghouse employee in 1961 I'll never know Glamour, thy name is Laundromat This post was last edited 04/10/2016 at 16:17 |
