Hey Forty Rod

[Delmonico]

Can you ask another question so we can answer it.  Then we'll hijack the thread and take it to places you never had any idea it would go.

[Leo Tanner]

I been waitin fer one of these too.  It's been awhile.

[Delmonico]

Tonight would be good, it's dead slow here at work, wandered up to the WD to see if they needed help, nope, no need to help them watch the clock either.  At least I have the net here.

[Leo Tanner]

I got the impression you were slow taday.  I'll sub in for 40.

Does anybody have any information on mid 20th century Mangles?  Mom had one and our pillow cases were always nice and smooth.

Nope.  And besides that it's not the same.

[Leo Tanner]

They are big soes ta fill.  I'll give ya that.

[Texas Lawdog]

I remember that we had one when I was a kid in the 50s. It always smell like a laundry in our house when my mother used it. I don't remember what ever happened to that thing.

[Forty Rod]

No, but I have a serious question: I finally wore out the hand-held shower in our bathroom.  It's in a stand-alone shower the size of Superman's phone booth.

Now picture this: the original shower head came out of the wall about chest high.  Had to get on my knees to wash my hair...so I put in one of those gooseneck pipes that raised it up above head level.

Worked great for almost thirty years, but now I find all the hand-held showers have 10"-14" handles and the  end nearest the hose fits in a socket so the whole thing hangs out far enough from the wall that it squirts over the door.

I been everywhere and can't find one that mounts with the socket closer to the spray head.

Any suggestions?

[Leo Tanner]

Move.

[Forty Rod]

Sounds like a plan.  Do you have room for me, the wife and dog, and all of our truck and duffle?

 

[Delmonico]

Take a bath or go to the car wash.

[Major 2]

Camping World...  I got one for my MH  about 5' long with a 5" long 2 1/2 " dia. head (they had Chrome or white plastic) it had a little push on off pin.

or.... a Kitchen Sink veggy sprayer ..Home Depot

[Delmonico]

Well once again Forty Rod has a good answer, so now off to the races with the tread hijack.

I'll start with some good advice from a wise man.

You wouldn't be the first.  Come on up.  Just know we stay up late an sleep in.  Put the seat down an wash yer plates an silverware when ya done eatin.  One of our dogs is a compulsive licker so you just have to get used to it.  There is no cure (she loves tobasco).  Other than that, I don't see a problem.

Yep, Leo's B and B!   "Always get your Cawffee water up from the Herd".  "Don't pee on my leg and tell me that it's raining". I am sure BB can give numerous "words of wisdom".

Well he sure could if he'd buy a copy of Texas Bix Bender's book:



Tis full of wisdom.

"The Grass grows Greenest over the Septic Tank!"

Different arthur.

[Forty Rod]

Yeah, Erma Bombeck.

Find a book...may be more than one...by Chick sales, maybe late '20s to late '30s.  Ol' Chick knew how to build a 'comfort shed'.

[Texas Lawdog]

Yep, If you plan on spending a lot of time out there, you might as well be comfortable.
