Darn right, Pitch. Hard to beat jeans and a shirt dried on the line and kissed by the sun.

Most of the population of the USA will not even know what you are doing, much less the tools you are using to wash you clothes. And they are allowed to vote!

Pitch......I'm with ya........we stopped using this when I broke down and bought what's in the bottom picture. Those Maytags never wear out......we have three of them and it's all we use.

I got tired of buying a new automatic every 3 or 4 years so I hunted local auctions until I found some that were in like new condition. That was 25 years ago and I have not put a dime into any of them.----6

Dang Pitchy, your more redneck than me.......I really like your butter churn and the old Fredrick.

One thing for sure, we both pretty much think alike.....the old ways and machines lasted longer, (in my experience, especially with dirty clothes) clean better, more simplistic,.........and cost a whole hell of a lot less.

Gives us more gun money.

I see you have a mess of beer cans all ready to take to the scrap yard for cash.

Your more cool beans than me.

Have a Maytag two-cylinder hit and miss and a Briggs and Stratton W-M out in the garage that have "done a few loads."
