Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Any exciting on topic Christmas presents?

Speaking of gadgets....I once got a good look at how the old Fridgidare
washing machine mechanicla unit worked for driving the center spindle up and
down. I remember it had something to do with a horizontla shaft driving the
vertical shaft up and down thru a swash plate. Anyione got any pictures of
that mechanism? I'd like to get a good look at it again, 'cause I forget
the minor details of it.
