Brilliant! 
<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang

Re: Friday's Washing Machine Carnage
Ditto. I'm not sure why watching a washing machine shake itself to bits is so funny.
I couldn't make out what it was he tossed into the machine at the start, something heavy I suspect. I wonder what the chances were of it chucking it out again at 200mph

I think it's because even though it's destroying itself it just keeps going and going.

Re: Friday's Washing Machine Carnage
Looked like a short piece of steel pipe flanged at both ends; probably about 5Kg - I don't suppose it could escape due to the centrifugal thingy. I liked the door flying open, the metal plate flying from the back and the final 'dance' around the Garden.

Re: Friday's Washing Machine Carnage
Obviously a rigged machine as it would stop on the door opening... also makes me suspect some screws were removed from the panels... but good vid..

Re: Friday's Washing Machine Carnage
I suspect mains was wired straight to the high speed windings on the motor, that's why it could vacate the chassis and keep going. And going and going...

Re: Friday's Washing Machine Carnage
That's brilliant! Yeah, the mains was wired straight to the motor, I loved the bit when the drum came out and started making it's own way around the yard

Re: Friday's Washing Machine Carnage
Absolutely brilliant.
Did sound a bit rough though - the final bit when the drum was waltzing matilda run the garden was reminiscent of my bro's XUD.
Prior to that, I thought I was listening to my neighbour's VW TDI.

Best bit for me was at the end. An advert for a 'Whirlpool repairs'. I think it may have been a bit beyond repair.

That reminds me of the one photonic induction did a few years ago:

There is something quite funny about watching a washing machine disintegrate.
