When i got my Coronamatic, i got it as a parts machine because it was listed as “parts or repair”, but it actually worked perfectly, so now I’m trying to sell it
Perfect timing. We just moved and I need to let go of the ones I don’t want/like/need or use! I try to stay away from shipping as well 😳. Thanks again for another great video 😊👏❤️
What is interesting to me about this video is two things. 1) what would make you a professional, exactly? 2) What makes you keep versus sell a machine (you did go into that a fair bit). Collecting is a somewhat mysterious journey. Selling a machine tells you something about where you are at, what you are looking for. I need to sell about 10 machines! It is just such an effort, buying one is so much easier….
I don't adjust a machine- all the precision based work that the professionals do to line up all the slugs or adjust the tension really make a difference on the operation of a machine. I don't take them all the way apart to clean them either, and I often put up with little quirks on a machine rather than find a way to fix the issue. A professional would know how to make all of those adjustments and get the machine to an optimum working level.
@@JustMyTypewriter While I agree with all you have said, I wonder about the future. No formally trained technicians will exist, and only tinkerers remain. “In the world of the blind, the one eyed man is king”. I think you might be selling yourself a bit short. You have great ability at this point.
Great content as always. Thanks for using real numbers, personal experience, and clear information. You add a lot of value to this community

Great helpful video 👍👏
I love my underwood universal, but the keyboard of it is SO tiny
I noticed the cassettes in your car, is that another passion of yours? Wonderful video as usual!
My car just happens to be 28 years old- so cassettes are what I have to use!
Great and helpful video! Thanks.
Well this came at the perfect time, thanks so much as always! Wonderfully done video.
Exactly what I do 😳

Is that the Underwood red typewriter nail polish you were after behind you on the shelf? Beside the black and red cat?
It's not- I'm still on the hunt! That's Cutex Red polish which is very similar
Excellent video! Question: If you had a large roomy house and some wealth, would you still get rid of some of your typewriters?
Great tips. Sigh, but why is acquiring typewriters so much easier than giving them up?
Yes, I would still be getting rid of some of my typewriters. I would rather them be used!
@@Saboda53 I totally feel this comment!
Do you have a vintage car, too? Cool!
Vintage is a strong word....... she's an oldie for sure!
Always include a copy of the user manual and a FAQ sheet.
