I passed through Athens, Alabama a few days ago and if you ever get a chance, check out the museum there. Its a great collection. In the back room they have something that I promise no other museum has… the maytear.

“Maytear” Washingmachine at the Alabama Military History/Veterans Museum in Athens, Alabama. Is a reproduction of a machine built by the 1343rd (Combat) Engineer Battalion of the Alabama National Guard during the Korean War. Built from a gas engine, a belt, a few wheels, and two 55-gal drums, it was pretty effective, but “May Tear”
