I did a quick search on '1975 Maytag dryer felt band' and came up with this. I don't know if this is the correct felt seal, but also listed is a high temp adhesive for attaching felt seals. https://www.repairclinic.com/PartDetail/Felt-Seal/WP37001132/1063784?TLSID=1779&Ref=611198&gclid=Cj0KCQiApaXxB...

If she wants to go to cosmetology school, support her. But also suggest studies in business ownership and management. Cosmetology schools (just like medical schools) don't teach the business aspect. There's more money made in owning and operating a beauty salon then there is in renting a chair in one.

How about a Ford Crown Victoria? Big, body on frame, huge trunk, safe, reliable... the Police Interceptor models come with a fire suppression system. You can get a great one for way less than $10k and it will easily last 300,000 miles if you take care of it.

I made some personal sized flannel 'blankets' 2.5 yards of 44" wide flannel from Walmart. They are great for layering without adding too much weight.

I have a basic CAP power rack and found it will move when doing Australian pull ups. It is now secured to the wall. The CAP rack needs 4' x 6' space if using it for the chin up bar only. If you are using it with bar bells, probably an 8' x 6' space.

It all depends on the market and what someone is willing to pay for it.
