Of course the washing machine broke when I was desperate for clean socks. The repair guy is coming soon (please?) but in the meantime, it was off to the laundromat for me.

 

Update: The guy came and fixed our washer! He was pretty cute, but I have to wonder if he was that much cuter because he fixed the washer?

An Edwardian hand-powered washing machine made by Morrison of Birmingham in 1904.

 

The machine has a round wooden tub with two iron bands and a lid to hold hot water, soap and dirty clothes. The tub has a handle to spin in and a spigot to drain away the used water. It sits on an iron spindle on a base with three legs. The back brace has two iron arms.

 

This washing machine would have been used in a wealthy household as at that time clothes washing was commonly done with a scrubbing board and washing dollies.

Terry washing up before bedtime. We had a salvaged sink in the hootch that was hooked up to a canvas bag outside. The waste went into a bucket below.

After picking a couple of pounds of blueberries, the kids washed them in the farm's vintage galvanized washing tub and hand-pump well.

Verandahs over the river in the late afternoon sunlight looked really pretty with the washing hanging out

It is no fun losing a day of plans to appliance repair. Our washing machine has not been draining well. It seems to be a common issue for the drain pump to get gunked up and need some TLC to get going again. Wendy and I took apart the washer and cleaned various hoses. We even opened up the drain pump to make sure it was clear. The washer appears to be draining, but still has issues completing a spin cycle on the first pass.

Man washing his hands at home

This wasn't as successful as I'd hoped. I was trying to get a vaguely artistic shot but couldn't get a decent focus on the central line of rain drops (and I'm rubbish at manual focussing).

Since my grease car filters are plugging up at 600 miles I decided to

try "washing" my waste oil. The container on the right is unfiltered

WVO. The container on the left is WVO with a few table spoons of water

in it that has been vigorously shaken. I'm going to let the water and

debris settle to the bottom for a week and see if I get a lighter

color oil. If this works I can do washing within the 5 gallon

containers I harvest oil in before transferring to my long term

storage tanks.

Shot using glowsticks, flags, a torch and an abundance of patience!

Washing clothes by hand is really hard... I tried myself once, and had to give it to someone with more experience to finish it. This lady seemed to have the right technique, though :-)

My washing machine has been wobbling. One of the legs underneath needs a good tightening. So, until I can get my fiance to fix it, I thought I'd make due with a book underneath the leg for support.....(see next photo in photostream)

love the colours, it's not as sharp as I would like, so wouldn't work blown up large, but it's a good place to start!

Its a bit of a cliche, but it had to be done the shirt colours looked good against the sky, and the light was fantastic.

CLOTHES WASHING KIT

5-gallon bucket with lid (cut hole in middle of lid for plunger handle to fit through)

Toilet plunger (brand-new, clean)

Store in bucket:

Liquid laundry detergent

Stain remover/stain stick

Vinegar (add 1/2 cup to rinse water) helps remove soap

Rope (for clothes line)

Clothes pins

 

To Use:

Empty contents of bucket.

Place water, small amount of detergent, and clothes in bucket.

Move plunger up and down for a few minutes or until clothes are clean.

Remove soapy clothes and ring them out.

Dump out soapy water (on your garden or lawn.)

Place soapy clothes in bucket and fill with clear, clean water.

Add 1/2 cup vinegar to rinse water.

Move plunger up and down to rinse clothing.

Wring out clothes and hang to dry.

Conserve water - use rinse water for next load of laundry.

 

NOTE: You could store two 5-gallon buckets, stack one inside of the other. Use one bucket for the soapy water and the other for the rinse water. You may be able to wash and rinse a couple of batches of clothes without changing the soapy water depending on how dirty the clothes are.

The washing machine was made of gavanized iron. A handle was pumped by hand which worked a plunger up and down in the machine. A tap on the machine allowed the dirty water to drain out into a bucket.

My cousin's little one tried to give my car a wash. He did his best but it was just too dirty.
