Anyone have one? I will try to post a short video and picture of it. Didn't run but I located some parts and got it running like a champ. Was a very interesting project and I learned a lot with the rebuild and history of that engine uniqueness.
Kick start, hit miss engine.

Here is a video of the one I rebuilt that I got running. The size of it 8 inches tall, 7 inches wide and 7.5 inches long. It is .5 HP gas but they will run on kerosine, and just about any liquid that burns. Very simple crude carb that work great. I didn't paint or restore the out shell. Took some doings to find parts and head gasket but I did from a very kind man from the state of Michigan. He had the gas tank and I might see if he still has it and make it a complete original engine.
For some reason I can't get the video to link here. I have done them before but must be missing a step.

Somewhere back in the memory of my youth a relation had one of those retired to the back corner of the garage. Never have seen one run until now.
So you not only had to do laundry when you could go out and hang it, but when you could be outside to wash it.

Osky Osky, I guess what they did was run a hose from exhaust pipe and run it outside and washed inside. I'm not saying all did it that way but when you purchased a new machine it came with long hose to go through window or to reach the outdoors.

I've seen Amish that had water pipe the size of the exaust on the motor run up out of the basement out the wall to the outside.
