    I really miss the little portable typewriter I learned to type on. I sold it to help finance a trip I wanted to take my then nine year old son on. He's fifty now and I never did stop missing that typewriter. I think your plan to type snippets for your journal is just what you should do. It will make you happy. My journal is an old vintage Collins 7 ring binder. I bought the hole punch that matches the seven rings. BTW, the seven ring is what Franklin Covey calls the 'classic' size or Half letter size. I love it and now I'm looking at it thinking, "I want to type some of my pages now! ".

    • @adventuredenali

      You should get a typewriter again! Sounds like you already have the perfect system set up for it. I’m intrigued by the seven ring, will have to look that up.

I have fond memories of that typewriter, even though it was so so difficult to hit the keys! Your typing is so smooth, I am very impressed!

    In 1967 I had just graduated from UC Berkeley with a bachelor’s degree in English. I almost demolished my trusty lightweight Olivetti that had served me so well ~ I felt it to be the albatross around my neck! I had to wait 25 years for the computer/word-processor to save me from a dark delirium of slavery to a tappity-tap monster! You are so cute, but so clueless!!!!🤷‍♀️ But you’re such a nice lady and I appreciate your love of old stuff. Yes, I too have a treadle sewing machine and antique melodian, so I do understand.💁🏼‍♀️💞

      Sounds like quite the struggle! I wouldn’t say I’m clueless, but it’s true, I never had to go through college with a typewriter. I don’t get along with computers, I become incredibly impatient and frustrated with them. So, I continue to write with a typewriter. :)

    I’m looking to add an Adler j4 to my collection. I collect and work on typewriters. I appreciated your input about the feel of the machine. If I may, there are felt pads that are usually used under the machine to keep it from moving. It is also a nice muffler to quiet the noise a bit. Amazon has them. The thicker the better. Thanks for you video.

    • @adventuredenali
      @adventuredenali  4 года назад

      Good luck in your search! It’s a great machine. I’m smitten for sure. I do have a felt pad under her for this video, and normally, where I’ve been sitting for typing it hasn’t been an issue. But I think because of how I had to be situated to accommodate the camera tripod it was a little wonky.

  • @VintageTexas59

    Congratulations to the new typewriter. If you enjoy this Adler for longer typing sessions, check out Adler Tippa 1963-1966 portable models, great smaller machines and very snappy & easy to carry with excellent result typing daily journals or bigger project.
    I have 13 different manual machines now (downsized) and Adler Tippa in those years mentioned a good quality typewriter, also plastic cover as yours but metal base & frame.
    Very easy to maintain, durable plastic case for typing outside.
    Between the most satisfying machines, the Adler Tippa and Hermes Rocket are my favorites.
    Happy New 2021 and stay safe. ***
    Looking forward to more videos this year.

    • @adventuredenali
      @adventuredenali  4 года назад +1

      Thank you so much for your suggestions! I would like my next to be a portable. I had looked into the Hermes Rocket and Baby. The Tippa hadn’t been on my radar.
      Happy new year to you as well!

    • @VintageTexas59
      @VintageTexas59 4 года назад +1

      @@adventuredenali You are welcome, with the talent in journal writing and nice fountain pen's a small portable typewriter comes very handy sometimes. About Hermes Rocket or Baby, they are also great small machines, but it's something special with those Adler Tippa and snappy key action & quality. Another positive thing is the larger return lever on Adler compared with Hermes, same size as bigger machines.
      Good idea with a 3-hole binder and adding typed pages, I did a smaller journal with glued typed pages combined in different colors & printed photos, as you pointed out the thickness can be a issue at the end, less then 100 pages works out alright for this kind of application.
      Anyway, I hope you will enjoy the new Adler and keep an eye out for the smaller version in the future. * Happy Typing *

    I love Adlers - got the big sibling of this, a 1965 Universal 39 (almost identical to the one off The Shining, though that was a 1968… and in the book, Jack used an Imperial anyway). Also, Kingsley Amis used one. Know what you mean about the weighty keys - quite a workout for the fingers after pampering them on a MacBook right. But such a wonderful tactile experience!

    Interesting about the typewriter. I have one Smith Corona in my basement, and have not used it in years. But I do like a good mechanical keyboard. I prefer to write with my fountain pens, but typing really is important to writing too.
    It may be my math/science background, but I'm fascinated by old adding machines and slide rules. You've given me some inspiration to explore those in my channel.

    • @adventuredenali
      @adventuredenali  4 года назад

      Writing with fountain pens and typewriters I think both access or fire up different parts of the brain. It’s so wonderful to be able to have access to both - and enjoy them both. Smith-Coronas are great. Do you know what model it is? I’m hoping to one day bring a Silent Super into the collection, but I need to make space... These machines take up a bit more space than a fountain pen does, ha.
      Oooh the old adding machines are incredible. A friend of mine just bought one, and now I’m encouraging another friend to buy one for her young son to tinker with, haha

    Had you considered a disc based notebook like the Levenger, or Staples Arc, or fancier Atoma systems?
    You can peel out and move around the pages easier than a ring binder IMHO.
    And, with the special hole (mushroom shaped cuts) punch you can use any paper you like in them including pen-friendly and art papers.
    I have some Atoma notebooks and the, admittedly expensive, hole punch and really like their versatility.
