Typewriter Video Series Episode 243: Swapping Platens 4K

[@loganspall9915]

You’re the only KZbinr I feel impelled to watch when your videos appear in my feed. Thanks for all you do for the typewriter community. It’s plainly clear that it’s done out of a love for the art, craft and process of typewriting. Merry Christmas to you and your family, Joe.

I have successfully resurefaced some hard platens with (heat-)shrinking tube.

Hey I have one typewriter called Seville 3000 do you know what is that?

If only all typewriter platens were as easy to remove as the higher end Smith-Coronas! Merry Christmas Joe, and a Happy and Creative New Year!

What a brilliant idea! And love the shots of the Christmas decor at the very beginning of the video as well!

Joe, the platen shaft would pull through, probably remove the left hand knob and it should pull through......

Sharing with a friend who was just mentioning having a folding portable that is near and dear to her that has had someone try the rubber rejuvenator on it. and was interested to know if there was someone that did re-rubbering... Thanks!!
