Our dryer stopped working. After some investigation I discovered our motor pulley exploded. The motor pulley (not idler pulley) is screwed onto the shaft of the motor and makes the belt turn. It kind of looks like a oddly shaped bobbin with screw threads. A replacement part is only $8! Hopefully it will work.

if my 18yo dryer has had every part of it replaced, is it still my dryer?

@ArchusByte only then it’s truly your dryer. keep going

@ArchusByte

Srsly though, I aspire to maintain things so long and so well. Well done!

@ArchusByte Theseus wants you to wash his chiton again before you put it in the dryer. He can still see minotaur blood on it and he doesn't want the stain to set. >_>

@ArchusByte It's grandfathers axe status now
