old rusty dryer….WORKS – $25



this dryer was in a abandoned rendel property

it looks bad……but paint is cheap
the home had electrical problems……not the alliances
i plugged it in and it works

it is worth $10 at the scrap matal place …
and that is where it will go soon if you don’t buy it now

iwe also have a washer in pretty good shape fpr $50
i also have a rusty ld refrigerator for $25 too…freezer is cold but frig is not real cold

It doesn’t look bad, per se. More sort of… how do I say this? Like a toilet. Not a dryer. You could, as suggested, attempt to paint it to look like a dryer. But somehow, I don’t think it will work. Since, as I mentioned, it’s a toilet. Not a dryer.

I am, however, dying to know how you managed to plug it in.

Thanks for the post, Tiff!

    It would work better as a washer, but the spin cycle is quick and rough.

    Looks like my former governor has fallen on hard times. Philadelphia has always had its problems, but it has really put old Ed’s career in the crapper

    Wait, the alliances, did the home not have them or did the alliances not have electrical problems? I need clarification.

      The Alliance is still having electrical problems, because the Browncoats sabotaged them during the war.

        How do you think I was able to get in and out of this hospital on Ariel and lift this spectacular lab coat?

    With alliances, it’s problematic if the electrical and the water decide to join forces. The outcome is rarely pretty, and never functional.

    Is this one of the new Dyson clothes dryers? You know, the one that looks like a toilet? They’re suppose to be very efficient, and never clog up, even if you overload it with wet clothes. And what’s that in the background?…it looks like an old Fridgidaire Hoover…Eureka!!! Those are worth a ton on the collector’s market!!!

      They haven’t priced paint lately have they? That stuff is about $30 a gallon. And that’s the watery stuff.

    “Freezer is cold but fridge is not real cold.”

    *slow clap* Atta boy, Spark. You’ve mastered the basic difference between the two, I knew you could do it. (It only took you three years, but who’s counting?) Next, you can start learning about lions. That’s the advanced class.

      Spark wrote that the frig is not cold.
      Now, I don’t have that much contact with the distaff of late–but, I’m pretty sure frigs are not meant to be cold [klunk–corner even on Friday!]

    Some people have no understanding of redneck engineering. This is a device for drying Old Rusty, made from a toilet and a vacuum. Turn the toilet sideways, duct tape the vacuum to the drain port, insert the dog in the toilet, close the lid, et viola.

    Obviously the washer tank on top of the toilet won’t work sideways, but if you take it off you can have both a washer and dryer for $25 — not a bad price for a grand alliance.

    Beware of the Iwe washer for $50; it has a split personality. The problems with a refrigerator with learning disabilities are obvious — your gerberts will spoil.

    The Zen of this is almost beyond comprehension.
    Things placed in this Aliance will become very wet, then dry–briefly–to return to the Void state (no aspersions meant towards Gov Rendell) between wet and dry. All until the cycle is repeated again. [cue AbFab theme song]

    Oh, important & germane aside–never but never ask sparkii how things with threaded fittings “plug in” (the inverse corollary apllies as well).

    The effect is very similar to asking underclassmen to demonstrate which ever idiocy they propound/evince/demonstrare–they are all too willing to do so, and with no regard for safety/sanity/sanctity of any nearby.

      Thanks, Capn…we can always rely on you to introduce a clusterbustle element to just about any subject. I (nearly) always understand the words you employ, just not the unusual format in which you arrange and collate them. (Is it yesterday already?)…..as in… “TO YESTERDAY,and BEYONNNNDD!”

        But MissMommy….the guy ran it by his daughter, and she OK’d it….After all, at 27 years old, she’s WAY(!) experienced and wise enough to be able to judge whether someone on CL is innocent or a serial predator……give the girl some credit….I guess the apple DOESN’T fall too far from the tree.
