Crazyb0 Rest in Peace 10197 Posts	Posted 02/15/2018 5:33 pm Yes, this seems to be a mystery, at first I thought this: But that went down in flames rather quickly. It was determined to most likely be caused as a " Dryer Coin", the tumbling in a dryer tub as these: That seems the most reasonable reason for such damage. Possible another machine may be the culprit? Edited by Crazyb0 02/15/2018 5:36 pm Report this Post to the Staff
