well today i was starting to clean and play with my free westinghouse all was well until she decided i wasn't being nice messing with her innards as i was. i lost my grip and the machine crushed my wrist. So i am now in a brace with a sprain or possibly a chipped bone. i think she is going to be called brunehilda.

OUUCCHH!! You've made a good point - these old machines are like horses. You think you've got this monsterously heavy thing under control until one stomps on you!
