I used to play with that wringer when I was a kid ... :-) ...
Your comment brought a *flash-back* to me. We were pretty young and playing in the basement at home, and my brother was fooling around with the wringer on the washing machine. His hand got caught and pulled through the wringer ....and the skin near/around his elbow got torn off pretty good.
He still has a very ugly scar of that misadventure. ;(
