Sigh. I snapped this piece off while trying to unjam it. Not great, you guys. Not. Great. The is machine (1962 Olympia SF De Luxe) has already giving me so much trouble, that this is actually fitting. Lesson learned. On to the next one.
I had to replace the drawband, but I forgot to take a picture and can't figure out which which hole the drawband goes into? In other typewriters I've worked on, it's fairly easy, they usually have a circular opening or something like that. I thought it might be on the top because there is an opening up there, but when I put it in there, the rest of the drawband slips out and wraps itself around the top. So I've taken pictures of 3 slots in the drum, which one is it? One, Two, or Three?
I bought something, but it got delayed so long that I ended up buying something else instead. I told ebay as much, that I didn't want it anymore because it hadn't arrived and then the next day it arrived. Well, I still didn't want it, so the seller told me to just write on the box "Return To Sender" and send it back and the tracking number would be the same and as soon as they got it, they would refund me. I did all of that and it's been over 4 weeks and the seller said they never received it, the tracking number didn't work as it stopped tracking when it got delivered to me. What can I do here?
1939 Remington Model 1 (noiseless). The mainspring drum doesn't hold any tension, so I think my only option is to open her up and see if it's fixable. Problem is, it's sealed on both sides, so I don't know how to open it. Any advice?
I have the spool cover/lid that goes on top, but am unsure about the spools themselves. I saw a video and the spools looked different from mine, they looked more like traditional ones that had a top and bottom. I’m assuming I’m going to need to replace the ribbon, so how would I install the ribbon since it doesn’t seem like there is anything to remove?
>The Orioles today announced a multi-year partnership with Corona, designating the beverage as the official import beer partner of the club. The partnership also includes the previously announced branded bar on the Flag Court where fans can enjoy Orioles baseball, and the presenting sponsor of Hispanic Heritage Night, including sponsorship of that night’s Los Orioles Jersey.
The Orioles and Dom Toretto, like minds.
