If you notice some ring pretty nice. I am saving all the best sounding ones for a redneck scrapper percussion instrument.
Haha, I KNOW what you mean.
I have found that some washing machines & most clothes dryers have a short motor & a 4 prong yoke holding it all together, along with the bearings & the round mounting bit.

They are magnesium & I have always known that Mg has its own 'Ring' when you tap it.
The other night I picked one up & held it on a string & tapped it.
45 seconds later its still ringing..... wow! I could do something with it.
