The first minute of this video, with all the preparatory tasks prior to typing, is pure ear-candy. These are authoritative sounds that I don't think even an Olympia standard can match. The carriage, the tabulator, the paper bail, the space bar all sound incredible, like some sort of military weapons locking into place. Perhaps it's the acoustics from the case design, I don't know.

Aye, I enjoyed the typing session videos from your other channel, and I’m glad to see another one. Typewriter typing sounds are just one of the few sounds I enjoy when it comes to old technology

[@dr.typewriter-venneburgtyp121]

I completely agree!!

I'd love to see a video on how you deep clean/service these typewriters. I have watched your videos for a long time and wondered how you've got them in such great mechanical condition. Right now I am working on a 1966 Remington no. 24 and I need some help, haha. Especially on how to put the carriage back on. I am a beginner so I would appreciate some simple instructions or advice. Thank you!

[@dr.typewriter-venneburgtyp121]

Definitely. The thing is that I don't have good enough equipment to film the process without it getting in the way mid-process. But I'll try!

Elle ressemble beaucoup au japy de la même époque.

How heavy is the touch on the lightest setting? Is it firm or forgiving?

[@typewriter6885]

Just subscribed - Question, do you a video addressing your typing method? Any suggestions regarding things like finger/wrist placement etc ...

[@dr.typewriter-venneburgtyp121]

My typing-style is rather unprofessional and frowned upon; I have never thought of making a tutorial.

Oh yes, the great pale whale
