Can't really destroy appliances without a few explosives! ;3

proof that they should stick to making cellphones and other electronic appliances

I take it you put it to the AT4.

Can you deliver it to WA?

Do what I've done with old toilets... fill it full of soil and plant flowers

rifle range target now

No place to legally do that, or trust me...it would have.

...and die in the process.

Thanks for the warning, didnt Samsung try to bring their crap cars over here too?

My parents have a Kenmore (built by Frigidaire) that they bought in the late 70's. And though it's worn out with broken shelfs and a icemaker that quit years ago, the thing is still working. They've been waiting for it to die but it hasn't quit yet!

Samsung (SMI) never really got off the ground. Renault bought 70% of it but never tried to bring cars to the US (yet). They had their hands full getting started in Korea. SMI was based on Nissan designs (and used Nissan engines). They are redoing everything to a Renault model now. Hyundai, Kia, and Daewoo are enough for now. The big worry is Chinese cars:

Yeah, I sure want to ride in that. OTOH, if some car does hit mine I hope it's one of those. Might scratch the paint though.

That Frigidaire may have to be killed. I had a 1940-vintage one until I moved 5 years ago. It was still running and may still be going in someone's garage for all I know.

We really made good stuff when we built those. People got sick of them long before they wore out. Many outlived the purchaser.

Ouch, that thing crushed like a beer can. Now I heard GM is planning to import Chinese cars. I hope they are beefed up for safety here...but who knows?

I also remember Chrysler (before they got bought by Fiat) was thinking of importing Chery autos from china. I think that fell through when they filed for bankruptcy. I test drove a couple of Kia SUV's out of curiosity and they were OK performers with a deceit interior, nothing innovative. The resell value of Kia's is terrible.

I have a Frigidaire that's about 25 years old; it doesn't match the current decor but I'm afraid to buy a new one with all the junk about.

I also had a Norge window a/c that lasted 32 years; in the last 12 I've gone through three others.

dude my mom still has an old kenmore washer and dryer from the 70s-80s and it still washes clothes real good. the old appliances were the best

In the orient, there are pubs where they let you take out frustrations by smashing large pots and many other kinds of breakables.

While over here, we have to make do... well as you seemed to have demonstrated pretty well. I'd have to say you sure did a number on it but I bet it was well worth it. Let's hope the new fridge doesn't end up with the same fate. Then again you could always build a cellar and fill it with dry ice...

That's some dragon temper there, LOL! Don't want to anger her!

I was disappointed to discover that Samsung made some things for Sony a while back. You can't trust any brand these days.

Kenmore, GE, and Whirlpool all the way, man.

I'd never trust a home appliance made by a company I primarily associate with cell phones. LOL

M-7 Bayonet? Why'd you let Hake use that on the fridge? that could have messed up the blade if she tried to stab it in the wrong spot.

All the rest sound reasonable, although I assume you made sure there was no rage when the skillsaw came out. When anger and power tools are combined, it usually ends in tears. (well, more likely blood, but 'This will end in tears' is more poetic.)

the bayonet was a basket case to begin with...a clean blade I wouldn't dream of using like that.

Good to hear. I've seen too many good tools destroyed by misuse, and when it's something as precision engineered as a combat knife (which is the spiritual descendant of that most noble of weapons, the Knight's sword) it is literally painful to see the beauty of a fine blade sullied and destroyed.

But an old blade that has had its 'glory days' pass it by is now just a hunk of metal, fit for whatever it can do before returning to the forge to be recycled.

Have you ever seen 'Zabriskie Point'?

Nopes.

Samsung makes good stuff, but there are better brands for large appliances like refrigerators.

You have any packs of C4 around? that'd be an effective way to dispose of it..


Better brands for refridgerators, such as Kenmore, Whirlpool, What's that somthing-Chef one...

When I did FRIST robotics, we used the phrase "gentle persuasion tool." It was so much fun to use "gentle persuasions" on something till it was little shards of metal.

why cut the body into small peices. when you have this versital soulution..

Cause using explosives inside the house is frowned upon, plus it was too big to go back out the door even disassembled.

I have CALEX ( 16 year old ) and works without failure.

It sounds like a joke, but Sears Kenmore, man. My family has used them since Democrats voted for the little guy's intrests ( a loooooong time ago) and we have had great luck with them.

So what have we learned about not buying American?


And I better keep my yap shut about working on my Samsung technician certifications!!

wait... so it's free??? I can have it?

This is both impressive and sad -- A decent fridge should last about 15 years. I'm sorry I missed the disassembly of it.
