Washing clothes is a timeconsuming activity when you want to do it by hand.
This is why man probably invented the automated washing machines 
As far as I know there are two types: one works on electricity and the other on gaz…
If you are able to make your own biogaz you might find the later a good ecological alternative.
Washing machine on gaz
If you are washing on electricity, you might want to check the powerconsumption of your machine… It goes from 1 to 4 KW (which is a huge difference!)
As for me… I want to try a different approach…
First of all I went to ask older people how they were washing their clothes before any washing machines existed…
Wel.. most of the time I just found out that people (especially farmers) were throwing their dirty clothes on the attic. Once (or a few times) a year they spend one or two days doing nothing but washing those clothes…
“Laundry Day”
They warmed up a huge tub and washed by hand.
This just didn’t seem a good alternative to me… I guess society wouldn’t accept this kind of attitude anymore, hehe…
So I went on looking for alternatives… and then I found something that’s in between both our modern automated machines and doing it by hand:
My Washing machine
Yes, my dear people, this “little monster” enables you to do your laundry by hand, without spoiling electricity!
I have bought it from a very nice Family in Wervik for only 40 Euro’s. It still needs some work, but as soon as it’s finnished I’ll make a test drive and let you know about my little experiment!
