Anyone know of attempts to convert an older washing machine to
bicycle power? I spotted one in a local used appliance place- the
kind with a built in wringer. Seems very sturdy and I wonder if
because it is older it may be much simpler and more easily converted
than a newer model. For sure the 'tub' is smaller than modern units,
so loads would be more modest. If its cheap I may just get it and
have a go.
