RE: Wonder washing machine
Now there is a modern version of the washboard. It still requires chemicals I would imagine but they can be replaced after an event. I like it and one is on my list.

RE: Wonder washing machine
When we used the self build camper van we used to wash our cloths in a hand operated plastic drum cement mixer we got for about 315 from B & q, basically its just one of thise 30 litre blue plastic drums we have been discussing on another thread but its fitted with a pair of wooden or plastic agitator blades similar to a big cement mixer. all you do is add the aggregates ( or clothes) putting in the water and soap, put lid on and roll it around on the floor for 5 minutes !!

That should read £15 not 315

RE: Wonder washing machine
when i lived alone, i washed all my clothes by hand in the sink! WTSHTF just substitute the river for the sink,no need for washing machines, concrete mixers or a sink.(i just KNOW i'll get a lot of BS back for this one  )
Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.

RE: Wonder washing machine
When the TSHTF I wont be washing any clothes, It's all part of my Grey man alter ego!
If I had to though I'd go along with Big Pauls idea and use the nearest river and rock!

RE: Wonder washing machine
How soon our civilised veneer slips.
OK. I'm in. I'll start not washing now.
