The Filthy Platen: November 2013
http://filthyplaten.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
The FP hall of fame. Friday, 29 November 2013. Because it's 'Ebay Rare'. Rar·er, e. Item for sale online that has been described as 'rare' that the seller has made no attempt to verify if it is or is not, and is largely a commonplace item. An item being sold online, or talked about online that a person wishes to imply has greater desirability or value than it actually does, and thus describes it as 'rare'. I guess those prices are cheap then! It wasn't unusual for people to come in off the street and sel...

x over it: January 2015

It is, of course, an impeccable writing machine. Sent from my new Erika 8. A bit of fun (Imperial Erika). Imperial Good Companion 5. I don't know what I was thinking when I wrote "starting at". Maybe the carrying case costs extra? How rude. Either way, £1699 is a bargain. Line drawings always look spiffy on a dark blue background. I've probably spent too much time in Adobe Illustrator this week. Imperial good companion 5. 1969 Erika spare parts catalog. Download the 1969 Erika spare parts catalog. Steve ...

sommeregger's sammelsurium: St. Mecano - Patron Saint of Typewriter Repair
http://sommeregger.blogspot.com/2015/06/st-mecano-patron-saint-of-typewriter.html
28 de junio de 2015. St Mecano - Patron Saint of Typewriter Repair. When in Lausanne, Switzerland, don't miss a visit at Jacques Perrier's typewritermuseum. Servicing of business machines is also Jacques' dayjob, and in his daily work he is protected by St. Mecano, patron saint of smooth repair. Apart from the general exhibition, Jacques periodically arranges for theme exhibitions. These days, it's Olivetti. The iconic ICO, and Xanti Schawinski's poster. The imposing and elegant Lexicon 80 electric.

Backspace does not erase: June 2015
http://badonoer.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Backspace does not erase. Saturday, June 20, 2015. Started cleaning of a newly arrived small black case. The clasps had a brown hue and the rest of the fittings were a dull grey. Amazing how the power of Brasso can bring it back - must have been very shiny when new with all that chrome, flashy even. Right side now given a first polish, left side as it was. Very versatile and useful item; Brasso. Friday, June 12, 2015. A machine's potential (and Remington Portable linefeed improvement). For example the li...

Backspace does not erase: May 2015
http://badonoer.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Backspace does not erase. Friday, May 29, 2015. Carefully check the case. When doing the first cleaning of a newly arrived case, two small parts turned out to be wedged under a lifted corner of the leatherette of the bottom of the case. A small ( 5mm long) screw-rod and a small spring. Lucky to have spotted these and glad didn't turn over the case to tap out all the debris and dust. There may be little parts of the machine amongst the debris. Friday, May 22, 2015. When you need a ruler. The later album h...

Backspace does not erase: One Summer
http://badonoer.blogspot.com/2015/08/one-summer.html
Backspace does not erase. Wednesday, August 5, 2015. One summer: America, 1927. That's when this Remington Portable typewriter was assembled in Ilion, NY. It was made for export with a Portuguese (? Language keyboard and somehow it made its way to Holland. It has received some knocks, the back of the lid is smashed in and cracked. The whole carrying case still holds together, mostly from sheer force of habit. The typewriter itself then. Luckily the case was much worse than the machine itself:. The keyboa...

To err is human, to typewrite err, divine. Posted on August 3, 2015.
