like those at a car wash where a person can turn a knob and the machine squeezes a towel and the water comes out. or the ones at a gym locker room where you put your swimsuit in and the machine spins to take water out.
Im looking for a manual one, but i dont know what its called. I want one because sometimes i want to wear a certain t shirt in 2 days but i dont have time/dont have enough laundry to do 1 load (dont want to waste money) , so i just hand wash a t shirt or pants and hang it for 2 days. when i squeeze a t shirt, it messes it up since it stretches sideways when i turn it to get water out.
so, are there manual machines out there where i dont have to plug it in? and whats it called? does ebay or amazon have it?
Google <<< check this please
Not cheap, though. If you are handy, there are many DIY instructions on the net.
Or check on e-bay
BTW: can't you just go to a public coin laundry and wash your shirt there. Sure beats the price of the wringer.
I can't believe you want to buy this thing for $160 to squeeze out the water! Where is the $$$ saving?
You also can wash it per hand, squeeze most water out, then place on a dry towel and roll it tight. Then just air-dry.

If you own an iron you can use it on a low setting appropriate for the material and iron out all the wrinkles then hang it to finish drying and it should be fine.
Roll the shirt in a large towel, use a salad spinner or just buy a second shirt.
Wow! I'd never have thought of that. A salad spinner would be just the thing for getting the excess water out of a dripping swim suit after rinsing it with chlorine remover. Competition suits are bloody expensive, and wringing them by hand can stretch them, so I try to avoid it. Some athletic clubs have electric suit spinners, but I never thought to use a salad spinner at home. You're a genius!
Easy Wring Spin Mop & Bucket System by O'Cedar might work with a few tweaks and it's only $40.
