The motor on the washing machine was having trouble so I replaced it and decided to have some fun with the old unit.

Yes, I know that an electric drill can be used to turn the gearbox, but that 1/2hp Maytag is a bit of fun. Could have used pulleys but I didn't want to put a set-screw mark on the
input shaft.

Hmmm, I see that Harbor Freight has 100' extension cords on sale...
 
The votes are in, the ballots have been counted and it is the unanimous decision of the judges that the above use of a Maytag motor is what a man who has far too much idle time can do!

Geo, your first prize cash award is in the mail.
