The best thing about making these videos is, that you can review the disassembly footage to see where stuff went. Although, with a Typewriter and the leavers for the keys, marking those (If the don´t have factory made stamped marks to which letter they correspond) is very important, because they have specific places they go in, an look very similar.
The typewriter is one of the most complicated machines ever invented.While anyone with a screwdriver may be able to dismantle one ,it takes a genius to.reassemble it properly. Well done.
Half way through the video, I found myself saying, "My God! That's a LOT of work!!" As satisfying as it was to watch, I hope it is way more gratifying for you! You certainly did a Fantastic job restoring that piece!! Thank You for sharing this with us!!😁😎
Ha! Nice to see your restoration of such an old workhorse. I have fond memories of working with one of about the same vintage in Dad's construction office during summer break in high school. It was a different brand and keyboard and you had to concentrate to be sure you had stroked the keys hard enough to get a successful response. I'd failed a semester of Typing 1 and wanted credit, so after summer on that old machine (in 1958) my first timed writing in the do-over semester was 73 CWPM. Love good old machines of all sorts. You're certainly doing interesting craft.
Beautiful restoration job. It is amazing how you remembered where every part belongs. More amazing is how you managed to weld the broken cast iron pieces securely. I bet that cast iron is harder to weld properly than steel. Anyway, it looks much better and it works like a charm too. Excellent work as usual.
Хорошая работа, отличная. Очень кропотливая и грамотная. У меня есть Ундервуд 1902 года. На нем написан мой диплом в 1985 году. Все руки не доходят восстановить.
Absolutely nicely done, it definitely wouldn't be a bad idea to even install a new tape into it and type on it from time to time. It's a nice piece of machinery.
It looks great and you did a wonderful job restoring it as well!!!! You was burning that wire (Welding) very hot!!! I enjoyed your video so I gave it a Thumbs Up
Your videos, especially this one, manage to be both therapeutic and anxiety-inducing at the same time-therapeutic in their presentation and anxiety-inducing in wondering how you know exactly how to put everything back together.
Disfruto enormemente tus videos, me relajan, son hipnotizantes, es verdaderamente increíble tu habilidad y destreza...alguna vez veremos tu rostro? Quisiera ver, a quién admiro tanto. Saludos desde Culiacán México..Feliz Año 2025.
Great job! Why is the platen so wide? Much bigger than a regular sheet of paper. Was this a special model for larger sized pages for a newspaper or to be posted?
Standard size carriage width for a typewriter is wide enough to accommodate paper that is 10-11 in wide and write lines that are 8-9 in long. Wider platen typewriter was marketed to banks, insurance companies, building companies & law firms etc ... Therefore typewriters with wide carriages were used for bookkeeping, ledger work, maps, drawings & stencil typing. It could fit paper 11 x 17 inch paper in landscape . Some typewriters carriages were even up to 30-36 in wide.
I fully understand that to do these restorations, you first must have an ability with mechanical things. And my 2 questions are: 1) Since most of these items were made long before the internet, and some were made by companies that have long since vanished (along with any documentation), how do you know what pieces are missing? And 2) Specifically with some of the more complex items, how do you remember what pieces went where. I fully get using an 'exploded' layout while putting pieces down as you go along, and having the initial 'tear down' video is very helpful, but that is quite a job for some of these restorations. I am not disparaging you or your skills, just curious. It simply boggles my mind sometimes. I understand the skills because i am trained in IT and computer repair, and this is similar to diagnosing PC problems just with different tools.
Needs Alignment: Ensuring the letters struck the page evenly and with consistent spacing. Typebar Adjustment: Calibrating the metal arms (typebars) to produce characters with the correct angle and positioning. Platen and Ribbon Maintenance: Replacing or adjusting these parts to ensure proper inking and pressure. Letter Slanting: Fixing misaligned characters caused by bent or worn typebars.
sorry but the characters are printed poorly because you have to do centering as well, an additional chore where you have to desolder to reposition it hot when needed. I would also regenerate the roller rubber.
This is what I came here to say as well. There was a reason why none of those parts were painted from the factory. Also, the oil that he lubed everything with seemed too thick and applied too excessively. All of that oil will gather dust and dirt, which in turn will become an abrasive paste between any moving parts. Just as with the moving parts inside of a clock, the fastest way to get them to destroy themselves is with improper lubrication.
По клавишам нужно бить сильнее. Именно БИТЬ! Ударять. И должна быть регулировка высоты расположения букв. Как-то же их регулировали. И неплохо бы сами буквицы восстановить, лазером их подточить, что ли, для лучшего отпечатывания.

A truly wonderful restoration, your attention to detail is amazing. Thank you for the video. BRILLIANT!
Thanks 😊
I would never remember where all of those pieces go. Great job.

What an amazing piece of mechanical engineering and an equally impressive work of restoration!
Thanks 😊

Thanks a lot, it really was a lot of work but I'm glad you liked it.
Wow, the first time I've seen a restoration not in English, absolutely fascinating presentation, beautiful result, well done you👏👏👏👏👏👏🇬🇧🙋♀️
Thank you!
Typewriters were complicated, mechanical masterpieces and quite amazing when you consider when they were produced.
What a complicated piece of machinery. You did a great job
Thanks

Такое впечатление , что это артефакт другой цивилизации ... Столько деталей !!!!!
Классная реставрация !!! Спасибо !

Bellísimo trabajo de restauración. Eres un verdadero artista!
Gracias!
Now it belongs in a museum!
Yes, that's for sure
It is very interesting to see how you assemble it little by little as you progress. Great job as usual!
Thanks for watching! It was a lot of work.
Fantastic! You gave me motivation to finish fixing my Olivetti M40! Your typewriter has extra wide carriage, just like mine does!
У вас золотые ручки! Вы супер!!! Класс!!!
Спасибо
Best restoration ever. typewriter
Thanks 👍
Superb restoration, thanks for sharing! 😁🇨🇦
Glad you enjoyed it
The loud clang you hear is my jaw hitting the floor. Awesome work!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Amazing Craftsmanship and Restoration 👍🏻👍🏽👍🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thanks
What a treat. It's so gratifying to see you restore this beautiful old machine.
Thanks
That is a functional piece of incredibly gorgeous art.
Thanks
Beautiful restoration mister beautifully restored well done
Thanks a lot
Superb! So many small parts, that was a labour of love.😎
Thanks a lot 😊
The painting process was magical. I wish more people would use filler
Amazing! I learned to type in the 1970s on a typewriter of a similar style and vintage ... a 1920s Remington, which was my mother's. So many memories.
Trabalho minucioso, delicado e perfeito! Parabéns! Fiquei com saudade do meu tempo de professora de datilografia. Um abraço.
Obrigado! 😊
Хорошая работа, отличная. Очень кропотливая и грамотная. У меня есть Ундервуд 1902 года. На нем написан мой диплом в 1985 году. Все руки не доходят восстановить.
The reason why the letters are not printed properly is not the ink ribbon, but the letters are not balanced. The solders need to be removed and fixed.
Felicitaciones!!! Gran trabajo!!!
¡Gracias!
VERY PROFESSIONAL AND TALENTED
Thanks 👍

In the whole , one good restauration.
That was a lot of work, and it looks great. Nice restoration 👍🏾
Glad you liked it
Now that's mechanical engineering!
Замечательная работа, поздравляю вас.
Спасибо большое, я старался
Fantastic restoration...a pleasure to watch
Thanks 😊
Bravissimo, hai avuto un gran coraggio e ha fatto proprio un bel lavoro😊
Terrific 👏👏🖐😃🇭🇲👏
Thanks 👍
It looks just like an old American made Underwood typewriter.
Back in the day, I once knew how to change the ribbon in one of these. A skill long since forgotten.
Apart from the high level of skill, this video is superb in photography as well as editing. well done.
Thanks, I appreciate it.
🎉
Apart from his fingernails. Most restoration RUclipsrs cover grubby nails with protective finger cots. This gives for better quality close up shots.
Parabens deu um shoow! Ficou melhor do que era quando nova! ❤❤❤
Thanks
Bravooo nice restoration
Thanks
Wow, so many parts, I'm sure I'd end up with extra screws at the end lol. Super satisfying video, I think the sandblasting was my favorite part
Ah, hells naw... I would never be able to get that thing back together. Nice work!
Thanks
Супер реставрация!!!
Спасибо
Great job!
Thanks!
Increible el resultado final después de la restauración❤
Thanks 😊
Amazing!
Thanks
Muito bom trabalho, ficou lindo.
Obrigado 😊

Ah thanks now I can save my game.
Looks great! Works not so great, but I suppose adjustments can be made.
Imagino que o maior desafio seja a literatura para estudar o projeto. Excelente trabalho. Abraço do Brasil 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Thanks 👍
Trabalho perfeito. Parabéns.
Thanks 👍
Браво!!!👏🏻 👏🏻👏🏻

Wow😮👍
Thats how mine looked like. Oh man, i regret not doing before and after photos.
Я бы разобрал и выбросил, а Вы охренительный мастер своего дела суперская работа
Спасибо
Wow, there are so many moving parts, I bet this took you forever to do, like what, 8 months?
Anyway, congrats! I love videos like these
Весьма познавательно. Спасибо.
Пожалуйста)
Great video thanks. Only halfway through and I am wondering what your system is for remembering where all the parts go?
Thank you. I sometimes watch the videos I made while disassembling.
@@PSVRestoration Ah that makes sense. And I only remembered to switch on the subtitles halfway through ;-)
I also sometimes forget to turn them on when I watch other videos)
I have used many typewriters in my life , never saw any like this, how much does this thing weigh, great job.
Thanks, the weight is about 16 kilograms.
Oh it's so strange that your haven't seen any like this. There's a famous US brand typewriter called "Underwood" with quite the similar design.
That's the most complicated machine I've ever seen.
How do you remember how to put it back together? So many parts!
Those intricate items would have better bluing. But great job!!
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Cool
Thanks 👍
From all the comments here I can say that very specific group of people watches this kind of videos😊. No worries, I am one of you guys 😂
Now I just need an ink ribbon and I'll be ready for Nemesis.
Nice
Thanks
impressive | there were too many screws and moving parts to assemble
how did you remember them all, where they belong to? :O
Great job! Why is the platen so wide? Much bigger than a regular sheet of paper. Was this a special model for larger sized pages for a newspaper or to be posted?
I think this is a model for larger formats than A4

You are correct...
Why do we just not get to see some of the pieces cleaned.
I would’ve really like to see how you did those. Even if it was more of the same.
💯👍😎💯
Goodness! Can you still purchase typewriter ribbons?
It is……well, different/unique/interesting to see typewriter keys in a different alphabet than ours (US)
Огонь
Спасибо
Khorosho.
sorry but the characters are printed poorly because you have to do centering as well, an additional chore where you have to desolder to reposition it hot when needed. I would also regenerate the roller rubber.
Thank you for giving me information that nobody really knows because then my brain remembers it forever
You type like a woodpecker HAHAHAHA
Don't worry I do as well HAHAHAHA
Is it called Yanalif or Janalif?
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
слишком много черной краски, она даже на шестернях и на резьбах болтов, зачем?
На болтах и шестернях это не краска, эта чернота сделана с помощью горячего воронения, если это не сделать начнет появлятся ржавчина
@@PSVRestoration ааааа
Never paint a campaign! 😅
What is the mode switch?
My wife: "What are you watching?"
Me: "A guy Bondo-ing a 120 year old typewriter."
Painting those type segments is a terrible idea. Those will get gummed up and never work properly. Those should've been either plated or cold blued.
Correct
This is what I came here to say as well. There was a reason why none of those parts were painted from the factory.
Also, the oil that he lubed everything with seemed too thick and applied too excessively.
