A minor issue with front loading washers and dryers is that laundry at the back of the tub can be hard to reach, and for persons of a certain age this can be quite difficult (or for anyone else who may have difficulty bending and reaching). This simple “rake” makes it easy to reach the back of the tub and pull laundry forward within easy reach.

Additional part required :

  • ½" (12.8mm) wooden dowel, approximately 24" (60cm) in length
  • Note : Use length appropriate to the depth of your laundry tub

The ½" diameter for the dowel is not critical, and the parts can be scaled to fit other diameters (such as metric sizes). For scaling purposes, I have included a "test socket" part which can be scaled and printed quickly to test the fit. Since wooden dowels are not precision items in any case, I recommend print the test piece first in all cases.

Assembly and Use

Assembly is simple - print the parts and insert the handle and rake on either end of a length of dowel. The pieces will be a firm fit (no glue required).

The handle part is really optional, but I find that the handle makes for a better looking item, and also feels more comfortable in use.
