    Great video and advice! I am always jealous of all those folks with kitted-out workshops! Thanks for sharing. Also, the before and after for the nicotine-stained "white" keys, and how you fixed them, is amazing!

    This applies to video game consoles as well! Great content!

    Great video thank you. I completely agree about turning the typewriter upside down. I found the following inside my Oliver number 9.
    Tinsel, pine needles, a penny from the 1940's, a marble and several matches. No joke. That and a load of crud and fluff. Very rewarding though.

    Great advice. Some small tools you might add is a spring hook, hemostat forceps, and a mini wrench set.

    The only major issue I have with your content is there’s not enough of it

    My failing is getting too excited about starting a clean, and getting carried away and not thinking of my area (kitchen table covered in rags, cleaners, Q-tips, and tools...just in time for dinner)-- that i's good advice.

    Thank you. This is what we really need to know. I've often been envious of the capabilities available in your dad's shop.
    I'm not as restricted as in an apartment, but these tips are just what I need.

    Thanks for that video, very good points to think of. For the typeslugs to clean i've made good experiences with my electric toothbrush and a used brushhead and mineral spirit, that cleans in seconds

    We ❤ portable typewriters.

    This is another great video of yours.
    My wife and I are allergic to dust, so I prefer to blow dust outside the house, or I use an accessory with a mini brush to suck the dust with a HEPA vacuum.
    Users manual always say to put a portable typewriter in its case to protect against dust. I think that very dusty portables are the result of leaving them uncovered on a desk all the time.

    I upgraded my cotton swab game by switching to bamboo cotton swabs. Much more reach and they don’t break.

    Can you do a 'psychotherapy' session on how if you are actually repairing and collecting nice typewriters and geeking out about them, positively, that you are now going to be considered by some mean people at least as the Biggest Nerds ever, similar to people who like books in general and also fantasy books and other 'outdated' so called things like figurative sculpture, esp. in stone? 😄

    0:51. Standing in the bath, in socks. Then turning on the water. Then being surprised that your feet might get wet! Classic.
