I tried out the new portable washing machine we received in the mail. I finished the end table, putting on hinges and a chain.

The new portable washing machine is pretty amazing. You can get one here: http://amzn.to/2gIsBJv

I put in ten pairs of socks and 4 shirts at the same time, bringing it up to about 75% capacity. It took about 5 gallons of water to fill the tank.

I scraped off some of my homemade soap as a detergent. You can use this soap for anything.

I ran the wash cycle for about 5 minutes and drained the tank. Then I filled it again and rain a rinse cycle. Due to the socks being so black, I ran another rinse cycle.

When the washing was done I put the shirts in the spinner and I am amazed at how powerful this machine is. The shirts came out just damp to the touch, the same as you would get from a larger machine.

The agitation in the washer is quite powerful as well. I am amazed at the performance of this washing machine.

I bought hinges and put them on the lid of my end table by the tiny house couch. Then I put a piece of chain on the lid to stop it from opening back too far.

This will allow me to open the lid and leave it while I search for items inside.

I am pleased with how this has turned out now.

Melanie and I showered with our new homemade soap and we both like it. Melanie is impressed with the lather you get from it.

This soap leaves you feeling clean, but not dry. My hair felt soft too.
