Bob. Finally someone who actually made a wringer and didn't shoot their mouth off for 15 minutes. I call it KZread {psycho babble} I've been looking at getting one for when SHTF but that will be the day I pay $150.00 or more for something you made out of items I have lying around my garage. Thank you for you advice.

Excellent! This is exactly what I have been trying to find!! I think that if a person could make these cheaply & efficiently enough, you could make a real business supplying preppers.

Great improvements over mine. I did make my own style agitator out of wood. now I need some ideas on how to make the wringer. interesting weekend project for families with children. Wonderful learning tool. This is a terrific video.

Wow you are a ginuse great idea love it

We are going to make a wringer. However, no welding or metal cutting equipment....so, it will be different. We'll have to 'wing' it!!!!

Great job, on the wringer washer Bob :)

This is absolutely brilliant! I wish you were my neighbor and Id pay you to make me one! Awesome!

Yes the roller would work better if I had found 1/8" rubber tube I could have slipped over the wood. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.

good job! I have been thinking of making a wringer & you have made one almost exactly like my plans. I had not thought to put the shelf on it. I think you could also coat the rollers with plastic paint.

I did find 2" clear vinyl pipe to cover the rollers. That was what I was looking for when I found the blue vinyl thin stuff.It is 1/4 thick and works much better.

Best place to wring clothes is over the garden. Shalom

I have been doing this for years little suggestion just sit on the bucket to smash out the water hell if you are a little heavy like me they almost come out dry 😁

Love it. I am trying to make one myself but much less sophisticated than your machine . I noticed that the water in your tray seems to also drip on the 'dry' side of the rollers which must mean that it re-saturates the clothing a little bit each time, maybe angling the tray downwards just a little more might help.

I wish you could make a wringer for me! 🤠 I can't find a decent one out there that's affordable and one wide enough for towels, sheets and blankets. I can make one but I will need to improvise because I don't have all the tools to make one like yours. I'm trying to figure out how to make and assemble the frame with the bolt and spring. 🤔 I'm wondering if there is a way to use some PVC pipe for the rollers, or perhaps or find some premade wooden wide rods.

@badbadbob1

For the wringer you can use rolling pins like you use to roll out dough. This has a center hole that can be drilled out to except a larger rod. PVC will bend from the pressure needed to press the water out of the towels and blankets. I hope that helps.

neat!

Actually I have only one issue with no lid in my plunger. My soaks and small items go through the holes. I just turn it and they pop out. Also I use a plastic tub not a lil ol bucket and the plunger does great.

It is a simple trap joint. The top is bolted lose on the right and left so it can swivel. Then the bottom where the rollers are. You pinch the rollers closed by tightening against the spring tension. The spring is only there so it can open if to large an item tries to wring threw the rollers. Like zippers or buttons will do. You need the spring tension so it pulls tighter, but lose enough to flex. Stop the video at 6:58 It gives the best view on the two arms and the spring that pulls it tight. 18:46 time stamp also gives a good view of the side you have questions about too. Show the video to a few friends. I am sure you will see then how it works.

Oh, love the bed frame idea! Strong and will last forever. Why are the springs on a horizontal to the rollers? How's that work?

@badbadbob1

The rollers are tightened with the springs. This will give tension to the squeeze yet let the buttons and zippers will press threw as it opens just enough for them. Thanks for stopping by.

The tray is on the wet side. It rolls out the open side. I have found the thicker clear Pump inlet pipe. It is the size I was looking for in the first place. They must have been out. Also running it threw twice helps too.

Bob Anderson Its really nicely put together and I like how you have it at a standing height so now bending over to use it. I've done mine now. I used rolling pins for the rollers. One has radiator hose on and the other is silicone coated using oogoo so that they grab on to each other as the bottom cranked one rotates.

I did put a washer on each roller end. Thanks for the question. It is slow speed using you hands to turn it. But if you put a motor on it. "Look out." You will need a safety pop-open device.

Great question. The springs will let the cloths push back on the rollers, if zippers or buttons need more room to roll thru. If it were stiff and not movable it would cut into the rubber and wood behind. Good luck with your build.

It is hard to see. But if you make the frame, you will need the springs to put pressure on the rollers. Es difícil de ver. Pero si haces el marco, necesitarás los resortes para ejercer presión sobre los rodillos.

you skipped a couple of steps. is there step by step how to?

+Jeffrey Dudley No Just go with it. The wheels have to turn when pressed into action. I was having troubles with that.

My Mum used to have a Victorian cast iron mangle. It was the best thing I had ever used for wringing out washing on my chore day. Really a shame you can't buy these any more. Not all of us are so good with making things like this. Great video though. I might give it a try sometime. Really can't beat a mangle - which, I forgot to add we call it a mangle in England
