Hand washing laundry: Make your own hand washer

Hand Washing My Laundry: Create Washing Apparatus: BUCKET WASHER

Using a bucket with a lid and a plunger (that I modified), hand washing enthusiasts worldwide (that don't want to spend $50-70+ on non-electric tools) can now wash their diaper inserts, socks and other non-delicate items much more thoroughly then before!

For some time now, I have been researching cloth diapering.  This cloth diaper research led me to researching alternative methods of washing laundry in order to save money and avoid skin irritants.  The alternative methods of washing laundry are what ultimately led me to pursuing the task of washing all of my laundry by hand. 

This is also how I discovered a way to wash laundry more thoroughly by hand.  Stomping laundry, as I did the first time, worked really well, and I still used this method this second time around, but I also added my new hand washing apparatus.

For the past six months I have been keeping a list of DIY recipes, crafts, and ideas:

Hand washing my laundry: Day 1

So, I have decided, for many reasons, that hand washing my laundry (eventually including cloth diapers) has become the only/best option for me.  I have done some research online in order to prepare for my adventure in hand washing and I have purchased all of the things that I think will be necessary in my quest to save money and not deal with public laundry facilities.
