I just finished fixing our washing machine. I only had to take it apart 3 times! And only 1 extra screw left over at the end.

Thanks @Broark. It really brings back interesting memories. You're out there in the hot fall sun, sweating your ass off. First you go thru the fields and cut all of the 'bacco with a razor sharp axe. Bent over the whole time. A friend of mine layed his arm open with his ax. Then you use the very sharp spear head to "string" the stuff. It splits the stalk of the tobacco and you push it onto the wood lat. My cousin ran the spear head right thru her palm. Definitely a backbreaking good time! Did I mention the giant green tobacco worms?

Wasn't sure where to put this. But thought some of you may enjoy it. A home movie, said to be from the 1950's, and possibly from the Wisconsin area where I grew up. It shows tobacco work, which I was doing the same way when I was in High School in the late 70's/early 80's. Backbreaking work. Anyway, there are some great shots of men in overalls and jeans. Someone in Austria bought it at a market and was told it was from Stoughton, Wisconsin. Farmleben in Wisconsin um 1950 - YouTube

Congratulations, @beautiful_FrEaK!! I'm assuming this is your first? They are a wonderful thing.

Best wishes and a speedy recovery to your daughter, Duke!!

Work with your brain. Have fun with your hands and your back (or on your back...).

Sketch of Clapton, sorry for the reflection. I'm sure there is a trick to photographing glass framed items, I just don't know it.

Spring update - maybe 6 washes

And moving Eagle Eyes... (button your fly Duke)

Thanks @Maynard Friedman. I do have that book. Just don't have a good memory.

Also, this one. Posted this on denimbro a while back.

Don't remember where I found this. Maybe it will help with factory questions.

Thanks @JDelage
