http://www.girlhacker.com/archives/11329
Almost daily since 1999. Seems you can’t be a typewriter repairman without someone sticking “last” in front of your title. But there are still a few “last” typewriter repairmen ready to service your Selectric. The Seattle Times found. Robert Montgomery in Bremerton, WA and Dave Armstrong in Bellevue, WA. Montgomery, aged 92, fixes your antique or your electric for $48 an hour at Bremerton Office Machine Co. August 10th, 2014 at 10:41 pm. Laquo; Buttercow Cam. Best of: Oscar Gift Baskets.

Fountain Pens & Typewriters: Replacing an Underwood Rhythm Touch (SS) Platen
http://offountainpenstypewriters.blogspot.com/2015/04/replacing-underwood-rhythm-touch-ss.html
Fountain Pens and Typewriters. Fountain pen, typewriter collecting, and maybe more. Saturday, April 11, 2015. Replacing an Underwood Rhythm Touch (SS) Platen. This arrived in todays mail. In order to use what arrived today I first had to start here and remove it about a week or so ago. Remove the two screws holding the cover and remove the cover. The right knob gets removed first by loosening the two set screws. Loosen the left screw. Loosen the right screw. This is where the semi-circular end rides.

Fountain Pens and Typewriters. Fountain pen, typewriter collecting, and maybe more. Thursday, February 26, 2015. Appreciating Typewriters at Work. The reactions of fellow employees to their engineering manager using a typewriter is worth the effort of using a typewriter at an electronics company. I think I'm expected to do everything with a computer. February 26, 2015 at 10:53 PM. Keep those co-workers baffled! February 27, 2015 at 1:12 AM. Give em hell, Bill! February 27, 2015 at 1:58 AM.

Fountain Pens and Typewriters. Fountain pen, typewriter collecting, and maybe more. Monday, March 31, 2014. Windows XP is about to die yet my Olympia SM9 Keeps On Typing and Olympia Typefaces never get obsolete. Enjoy the catalog. I'll get a .pdf to the Typewriter Database in a few days. Anyone ever see an SM9 that looks like an SM7? In fact, if you look at the small photo in the corner it looks like a Monica (no tabulator). Saturday, March 15, 2014. The Ides of March and quite a bit going on. Then as my...

The post card and the image above I think originate in the New York Public Library. They are all over on line so I do not know who to correctly recognize as the originating source. Mine, missing some chrome. Here's the link to the one that has plastic keys. The keys even look like they may be dark green. Monday, March 9, 2015. I'll be sending this platen off to JJ Sh...

What do you do when your compact camera comes without a grop? You get a grip! This grip makes the camera much nicer to handle and much less slippery. This is the grip before installation. Comparison of my medium format camera to the Lumix: 3 pounds vs a few ounces. Article that is the best review of all the reviews about the Panasonic Lumix DMC-LF1. Advantag...

Fountain Pens & Typewriters: Another Typewriter Joins the Staff at Work
http://offountainpenstypewriters.blogspot.com/2015/03/another-typewriter-joins-staff-at-work.html
Fountain Pens and Typewriters. Fountain pen, typewriter collecting, and maybe more. Monday, March 9, 2015. Another Typewriter Joins the Staff at Work. Thought is best to use some engineering paper since I was at work in the lab. I was thinking of my SS when I typed SS. I meant model S. The machine as it sits on the back section of my desk. Also the H3k stored away in its house. Wish mine had the fancy paper tray that Robert Messenger's has. Mine needs some chrome too. March 10, 2015 at 7:25 AM. March 10,...

Fountain Pens and Typewriters. Fountain pen, typewriter collecting, and maybe more. Wednesday, January 7, 2015. More Typewriters - Including another Hermes 3000. On my desk, but I forgot to take down the white background I used for the close-ups. The can with the wires on it behing my mug is one of the capacitors we make. Tthis machine looked new except for a few scratches on the back. The usual missing platen knobs. The right knob from a first generation works fine. Plenty of room to store the typewriter.

Fountain Pens and Typewriters. Fountain pen, typewriter collecting, and maybe more. Sunday, October 26, 2014. These came with the Hammond Multiplex. There were (and still are) 2 more mounted on the typewriter. This box can hold up to 9 shuttles. Several of these boxes of shuttles were also included. 2 boxes had a shuttle, keys, and typeface example paper. All but one box had a shuttle and typeface example. This is how to identify the top of the shuttle. This side up to load and use. From what I can find ...
