Thanks to the mini wash meet held at my home a few weeks ago I got to plug in and try a servis mk 2 twinnie originally made in Australia that I bought years ago but had never tried. After a bit of water in the spinner it all ran really quietly and without a hitch, the wash tub leaked due to a split drain to pump pipe.
Darren kindly sent a spare pipe and wash tub top seal. So today I started to strip it down in the hope of a wash going on about an hour later but nothing goes to plan with vintage washers. | ||

So
So after the strip down sadly the drain pipe Darren kindly gave me was incorrect so I need on of those. As the machine appears mechanically in great condition I've decided to strip down the casing to get it blasted and repainted. I'd like to have this as a regular one to use.
So far I need Possibly spin belts or knowledge on how to tension Spin can rubber mounts New castors The rinse flume pipe repairing If anyone has any parts or know someone who has let me know thanks Richard | ||

I can't really tell from the photo what the problem is with the new hose but sometimes you can modify them by cutting the hose at a straight section and inserting a short length of a suitable size copper pipe and clamping the assembly with jubilee clips. | ||
