Basically... I am trying to decide if I should implement laundy in my cottage at all; my experience is that wash tubs just doesn't work since they literally take half a day to do laundry and 1 full day for laundry to dry on a clothes line (if it's not raining or snowing, in which case it can literally take eons of time since well... most of winters and falls are rain or snow).
The alternative is to try to fit a laundry machine and a dryer in a small cottage and ruin the look and feel of the whole thing...
Well, wash tubs were all they had in the 18th century (and I would imagine even earlier than that). Which makes me understand better, why no laundry was done during the harsh winter months. The first good day after the winter, was laundry day, which of course took the entire day, depending on how many in the family. To think they used a batting stick to swirl the dirty clothes about and then bluing to make certain the whites came out white, squeezed the water from them using a box-mangle and then draped the clothing over bushes — we've got it so better than we know these days. LOL
As for whether or not you should use them in your game, I would say are you Off-the-Grid, or in what century is your game placed? These two questions might help you decide.
They need to add this kind of washing machine. It's completely off the grid and can be used as a massage machine too. :lol:
