Montgomery Ward Riverside Under Dash AC
This video features a Montgomery Ward under-dash "Riverside" AC unit installed in a 1963 Plymouth Valiant.
Date of installation is unknown but it must have been some time in the '70s as I have had the car since 1982.
Also featured ; an almost equally old stereo cassette player installed by my BFF, Bill some time in the mid-'80s.
I'd like to keep the AC because it's so old now, it's a 'period" piece as well, but it can't keep the R132 a in it.
At least the fan blows so the heat is tolerable during summer in the desert when it's stopped at a light.
Happy Motoring,
Dvaeo

Tucson Monsoon 2022
Monsoon in Tucson. My favorite season in the desert.
I haven't been uploading much recently.
My camera is a POS so I'm using an old Samsung cell phone.
More video to follow.

Ampco Oiler Installed in 1963 Plymouth Valiant
Ampco Oiler is a period accessory to enhance engine performance, fuel economy and longevity.
I added it to my 1963 Plymouth Valiant just because it's so bizarre and given the ethanol diluted gasoline we have, I suggest it can't hurt.
I was giving it a dose of Marvel Mystery Oil every tank anyway.
Now it has a steady, direct supply of that ruby red and minty fresh juice courtesy of Ampco Lubes.
Marvel Mystery Oil made it's own oiler as well.
NOS item available from www.ampcolubes.com
Perfect period accessory for that antique car you have.

My Big 10".....Loom
Featuring Harrisville Designs 10" pot holder loom.
This video is dedicated to my BFF Bill Palmer. R.I.P. till I get there.
Side note to clarify : 10" loops are hard to find outside of the Harrisville ones. They are all cotton. Others available on Amazon have been polyester and don't produce as nice a result, IMHO.
Plus: polyester and heat don't play well together. Cotton for the win.

Potholders Loops & Looms
Elementary school crafts perfect for obsessive compulsive adults.
These potholders and coasters/mug mats come out nice in spite of my "talents".
The angels move my hands to keep them out of the devil's reach I suppose.

A Pointless Pringles Rant
Outrage ! 2 smaller cans of Pringles cheaper than one larger one.
Industrial criminal behavior.
What next 11 oz in a "pound" of coffee?
Oh wait..........
Consumer warning: watch the number of oz and the prices. They're getting sneakier with the packaging every day. A half oz. here, a 1/4 oz there. Price goes up a little. No one ever complains or notices.

Homemade Pears Soap
My attempt at making Pears Soap from a recipe on Soap Forums.
https://www.soapmakingforum.com/ Great people here.
Many thanks to Admin ISG for the recipe. Pears formula recipes are scarce on the ground. I hope I've done it justice.
https://www.soapmakingforum.com/threads/my-version-of-pears-soap.43252/
Background:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pears_(soap)
Controversy:
https://www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2011/jan/12/pears-soap-changed-formula
It's ugly but every day it cures it gets better.
The most complex formula I have attempted to date.
I think I will shift down and go back to simpler recipes. It's expeensive and messy [fun though].
And yes, that is a Crock Pot I used to make the soap.
Hot process cooks the soap slurry until the lye is converted into the fats and makes soap.
Cold process goes into a mold, covered and cures as the lye integrates with the fats over a period of time.
Why Pears? It's a soap I have used for years and love. The fact it's been around for a couple of hundred years.... that's good too.
Bye from here.
Any tips, suggestions or video production wisdom [ I make better soap than video.... nothing to be especially proud about ], please feel free to comment.
