The Four Step washing machine has countless variations. One of the biggest challenges is figuring out how to reduce the sequence—deciding which step to skip, and seeing what the outcome will be. With so many possible variations, it’s worth exploring the whole collection!
Here, the second step is omitted compared to the four step, i.e. after the knee, the base moves to the sacrum. The rest is the same.
