I have a dishwasher so 'doing the
dishes' should be easy. However, I am also very lazy so
dishes tend to pile up in the sink for a couple of days.
Eventually the sink is full of dishes and I can no longer use
it
as a sink, so I have to put them in the dishwasher and wash
them, which is
extra work.
Kitchens should be designed with a collapsable hood over
the
sink. When the sink is full, the hood is pulled down and
seals
over the top of the sink. Then, water jets from the top of
the hood and sides of the sink will wash your dishes. It
shouldn't be very hard to implement because most of the
plumbing is already in place.

True, true genius. Commercial dishwashers kind of work like this. Why are domestic ones so unergonomic? |
|
|
It might work, but if dishes are stacked on top of
each other with lots of grease on them, the grease
might not come off. I'll bun for hoping. + |

// the grease might not come off. // |
|
|
10% surfactants, 20% methanol, balance is concentrated sodium
hydroxide solution, sprayed at 70C. The grease will come off. |

Hannibal Lecter's dishwasher is described above. |
|
|
[8th]'s version could be sprayed viciously with industrial
force, enough to reduce dishes to a fine powder which
will wash easily down the drain along with the grease. |
|
|
By the end of the week you'll have fewer dishes to
occupy the sink, an unexpected benefit. |
|
|
I like that no one ever addressed the obvious technical reason this wouldn't work. |
|
|
So do it in free-fall. The force of the jets will tumble the crockery. |
|
|
And don't make difficulties, it's simple. |
|
|
1. Install sink in small jetliner.
2. Put dirty dishes in sink. Close lid. .
3. Climb to maximum altitude.
4. Dive to induce free-fall, turn on washer.
5. Pull out of dive before* hitting ground, turn off washer
6. Repeat 3 - 5 until (a) dishes are clean, or (b) fuel is exhausted, or (c) arframe disintegrates from short-cycle overload fatigue*
7. Land and unload clean crockery.
|
|
|
*Optional. If not, dirty dishes are no longer a problem you need be concerned about. |

Bah. This is the model incorporating an electron sorter. Uncountable programmes for laundry, ditto vacuuming and compressed gas functions, but doesn't do dishes. Wouldn't you know, eh ? They're always angling to sell you upgrades ... |

It's been in the archives since we acquired it. Never had it out of the crate, never digitized the manual. |
