    The precision of the movements, the order of the contents and the hypnotic tone of voice... one of the best tutorials ever!

    Great Tutorial and demonstration of the different specifications of those Olympia models.
    There's one item more I'd like to mention:
    When the upper end of a A4-sized sheet of paper has reached the upper end of the extended paper support, you have reached the last line to write on the bottom of the sheet. It's not only a paper support but an "end of the sheet" indicator aswell. And because it is adjustable in height you can use this for any length of sheet.

      Thanks 😊, Beautifully described. We had this also on the smith corona Tutorial but decided not to go into more details as some clients are just so new to typing. Worth a separate video. 🫡

    Very excellent and well done overview of one of the best typewriters ever produced. I like how you have provided a menu of the different topics with clickable links, taking the viewer straight to the pertinent section. Nice.
    While I do own a SM4 (and it's my "go to" machine), I learned a better way to lock the carriage than what I've been doing.

    Great video. The SM4 is actually similar to the more angular looking SM7 and your description on the SM4's use applies to the SM7 as well.

      Thanks, The Video can be used for sure with minor changes on the SM7.. very good point as SM7 was later the base used to produce SM8 and SM9 but it has major design shifts.. . we are now filming a video on difference between SM2, 3 and 4..

    Aloha, do you know if these can be mounted to a typewriter table…not a side table but one that flips to hide the typewriter? Or, would you recommend using the base of the typewriter box and clamping that down to the section that hides away?!?

    Thank you for this video ! I have a question about the touch control. In my SM2, the lever doesn't move up and is stuck in the same place, somewhere around the bottom. Any idea why this happens?

    • @MrMrsVintageTypewriters
      @MrMrsVintageTypewriters  10 дней назад +1

      Unfortunately not sure. Later SM2 had tension control only. I suggest checking if it’s stuck with the ribbon holder mechanism. They are too close
