I had originally hoped for today being dedicated to doing nothing other than going for a very long drive to relax and think some things over (work problems). As things go, that wasn’t the case.
Amongst other things though, I did get to go for a short drive, finally have someone show up to give an estimate for the concrete work I need done, do laundry in preparation for an upcoming work trip, tidy up the house, re-organize the shed and add an extra 1/2" of plywood to the floor on the door end, wash the tractor, put it in the shed, and clean up the new-to-me late 20's or early 30's typewriter I was given (which works well, just needs new ribbon).
So it was still a good day, just not the good day I had planned.

Thanks, it is clearly very well-used but seems to work well. I’m hoping the fresh ribbon remedies the very-faint type (where the bottom is darker than the top). Could probably use a little light oil, too.

does it have an angle alignment adjustment? sounds like the body might be off a bit. Some of those old ones you could tweak the strike angle.

I have no idea whatsoever. I think every time I look at it I find another knob or switch or some other
thing
so it’s possible. If the ribbon doesn’t even it out, I’ll look in to it for sure.

Or just send it to me for a USB conversion....
Heh!
Good luck!

NP but only if the screen moves to the left as you type, otherwise total CP.

Haha! I bet that could be arranged!
