Hi guys can any one tell me how large a Twin Tub washing machine was ??

OK a weird request but I have the Scalescenes furniture and lineside junk set of models BUT
in the late 1950's and 1960's they did not have standard size Automatic washing machines and they used to put them OUTSIDE the shops selling and servicing them so a pile of Automatic Washers is no good

I am in the process of making the cookers to have High Level Grills that were all the rage then as opposed to the twin oven/grill types now

Cor, I can remember doing my washing in a twin tub. What a chore compared to an automatic machine.

I suppose they must have been about 30" wide, 18" deep and 36" high.

That's purely from memory mind you.

Yup me too but most of all I can remember the Electrical shop having three or four stacked outside on display
And those damned cookers with high level grills (can't you tell I'm having probs making them)
