An unusual use of a home appliance in cooking: an acquaintance of ours was
making pastry cake bases on a large scale at home and then delivering them
to bakeries. To speed up cracking the eggs, he used a quick spin of a
washing machine to separate the shells and eggs. Of course, the washing
machine was just for that, and not washing.

Oh - we bought a spin drier with a gravity drain (not a pump) to extract
heather honey. Not used for anything else in this house but some beekeepers
have confessed that they also use theirs for their socks ...

We don't wear socks.
