Default AG: I never tried this myself, but it ought to work


I read somewhere on the Web that if you haven't got a wringer, you can
press water out of wet clothing with a rolling pin: Simply lay the
clothes out flat and roll the pin over them.

The source said "a plastic table" -- I'd use my wooden picnic table,
because the expressed water is going to drip all over, and it would be
nice not to have to mop it up.

I once stayed in a mountain cabin that had a wooden counter that also
served as the drainboard of the sink; that would be an ideal place to
roll water out of wet cloth.

This trick might be useful when you've come in out of the rain, or
when you come home dripping with sweat and rinse your clothes in a
bucket.

Better make it two buckets -- one for the black stuff and one for the
rest.
