Dryer Repair
My wife said last evening, "Oh, by the way, the dryer is making a loud
howling noise. I think a bearing is going out." How long has it been doing that, Honey? Oh, quite a while. Grrrrrr. So, today, I pop the top of the dryer, take off the front panel, take out the drum, lube the bearings all around, clean out about five pounds of lint, and put her all back together. I love being able to save $100 by working on stuff myself. Now, I have two other dryers to do the same thing to. It's always something. -Roseanne Roseannadanna- Steve |

What did you use for lube? Something that won't attract dust?
