Hi from the southeast US

[fixermole]

I've always fixed things, either for fun or out of necessity.

The draw has always been a combination of learning how new things work from the ground up and the satisfaction of getting things going again successfully. It doesn't matter if it was a junked go-cart in the 70's or a fancy washing machine last week.

My journey in timekeeping repair over the last several years has gone from grandfather clocks to mantle clocks to pocket watches to wristwatches.

I've found that I enjoy mechanical wristwatches and there I've focused my hobbyist-level learning, technical skills, quality tools, and experience in the diversity of movements, materials, and complications. I've restored/repaired a variety of manuals and automatics so far, but have yet to delve into chronographs, alarms, etc.

This and other forums have been so valuable already, and since I have much, much more to learn, I look forward to the interactions.

So I was also fasinet about the old or the antic pic, So i recently bought one washing machine which is working by hand and It mechanism is so simple, So I though not to call any washing machine repair for farther fixing my issue .
