    My pen name is Cal Kasheau. Hey, I'd like to shamelessly promote my literary accomplishments while I have your attention. I have several short story titles you can get on Amazon; the links are below. Some are humorous, some reflect events in my life, and some are legends I heard of as a child in the swamps of Louisiana. They are only a dollar or two, and most are free with a Kindle unlimited membership. I hope you will take the time to read one or two and give me your honest opinion in the comments on whether or not I should continue to pursue a side gig as an author.

    Greetings from S.CA. I was so stunned to see how many steps it took to take this machine apart. More stunned to see how ineffective the design is to let so much lint to accumulate, especially around the heating element. FIRE!!!! Is there a problem with the lint trap? This machine looked so tight, how did the mouse get in there? Oh, I liked that rocking chair by the back entrance. Great color.

      Most dryers with front and rear tub seals seem to leak a lot of lint inside the unit as they age. Mice can squeeze through some amazingly small openings. I painted it olive drab on account of I have a lot of that left over from a previous project. Thanks for watching another one!

    🎉I would most definitely use a bacterial cleaner on inside of that one

    Chip, another great repair. Do you charge extra for the rodent extraction?

    • @HarperandKnowles

      Lol, perhaps I should! That’s a nasty job. Thanks for watching another one!

      Yeah it's a nasty job... I worked on a stove once it had a rodent in the very bottom of the stove and you just couldn't reach in and pick it up, I had used a putty knife to scrape it off then spray an bacteria cleaner Where it was laying and let it soak for awhile so I could finish scraping the spot and as well removed all the dropping from the mouse then use the cleaner to wipe everything down inside the bottom of the stove...

    Do you repair gas appliances

    • @HarperandKnowles
      @HarperandKnowles  4 місяці тому +1

      I only repair gas dryers. I’m supposed to be retired so I limit my appliance repair to washers and dryer’s. We don’t get many gas dryers in my area and I don’t have gas at my shop but I do fix them at the customer’s home.

  • @jaycole3768
    @jaycole3768 4 місяці тому +1

    That piece goes under the terminal block

    • @HarperandKnowles
      @HarperandKnowles  4 місяці тому +1

      Well, I couldn’t figure that out so that machine is now missing its part.

    • @jaycole3768
      @jaycole3768 4 місяці тому +1

      @HarperandKnowles it won't effect anything if it's missing. Most people and repair guys wouldn't even notice
