Here's yesterday's find after I cleaned it, lubed it, touched up the paint, installed a new drawband (Kevlar kite string—very tough, but installing it on this typewriter is tricky), and polished. It is missing the wheel that runs along the front carriage rail. Anybody have a Yost parts machine??
Fast work, Richard.
ReplyDeleteThe typewriter looks great.
Fantastic Job of restoration! I hope you find that spare part - bravo! (:
ReplyDeleteWhat a find!
ReplyDeleteMagnificent casting, those ribs. And indeed, fast work!
ReplyDelete(would a small ball-bearing work? anyhow, hope you find a/the part )
