Salesman documents the work of a group of door-to-door Bible salesmen in New England and Florida. Deeper down, the film is a dissection of the degenerative and devastating effects of capitalism on small towns and individuals, but more than any political statement the film is about normal people in all their ugliness and truthfulness.

Lucas Dul does an overview of affordable and available tools for typewriter repair as well as more advanced
Basic Tools
- screwdriver sets
- Carpenter screwdrivers (come to a point) the point can slip and causecam out screws
- Hollow ground - provide the most amount of torque and prevent cam-out problems (also called gunsmith He uses the 0623 Chapman set (the number is the date of international typewriter day) The large tip can be problematic
- long reach screwdriver
- magnetic screwdriver
- tempered stainless steel ruler (as a screwdriver, especially
- microdrivers (usually used for eyeglasses or electronics)
- spring hooks (push/pull)
- Fixture from an embroidery set with length for getting length
- grab hooks
- pliers
- standard needle nose pliers
- 45-90 degree pliers (he uses more often)
- wire cutters (for modifying springs in machines and modifying links in machines)
- parallel draw pieces (with heavy duty cutters)

- strap wrench (especially for removing platen knobs to prevent damage)
- knife (butter knife)
- razor blade for trimming rubber (otherwise too thin for other applications)
- flashlight (simple is fine)
- marker (Sharpie)
- marking orientation of removed parts (washes off with alcohol)
- hammer
- retainer clip pliers (especially for IBMs, Brothers, Swintecs) with spare e- and c-clips (some have thumbscrews for minimizing damage to clips) openers are more useful than "closers"
- Bristol wrenches - looks like Allen Keys, but with star cross section for bristol locks in IBM machines
- Hand crank (for IBM Selectrics) thread into the operational cam shaft
Intermediate Tools
- segment bearing rod (good for removing individual typebars)
- drinking straw for ball bearings on royal portables and S-C portables and flat tops staggered 1/2" ball bearings with orbital gear (star-shaped) - snip opposite sides to insert orbital ring and ball bearing for holding and placement in typewriter

Honorable mentions
- center punch for drilling points and new screws
- dental mirror for looking into machines
- spring gauge to set 2lbs for desktop and 1lb for portables
Q&A

Tools of the typewriter trade by [[Retrotype]]
Excellent overview of many of the basic tools for typewriter repair. Didn't have the strongest grasp of all the tools' specific names, but good enough for describing their general use cases.
Example of a typewriter toolset including a case made for telephone company repair, but which works with typewriters.
- Shore A durometer gauge
- nylon fishing/picture hanging wire spec to 25kg (for drawband replacement)
- thick waxed string/yarn for repairing fishing nets (for drawbands)
- nitrile gloves (to prevent staining, issues with mineral spirits, and other caustic chemicals)
- XPower pressure blower for blowing out dust/dirt and mineral spirits. (smaller than an air compressor)
- nail grooming set with tweezers, picks, etc. (not technically necessary, but sometimes useful)
- dental tools (for use as spring hooks)
- Renaissance micro-crystalline wax (non-corrosive, made for British Museum, good on marble, wood, leather, etc. Good on bare metal for treating previously rusted metal. (It's recommended to use an abrasive polish for improving the shine of glossy paint however)
- Pouch and set of precision screwdrivers (he only uses the flatheads though the set includes other) Prefer hollow ground tips which are squared off rather than wedges.
- Chapman bit set of screwdrivers (with hollow ground tips) He prefers these for hard to remove screws. Issue that it's a bit thicker at the tip.
- Liquid wrench penetrating oil for helping to loosen screws (he likes this better than WD-40)
- brash wire brushes
- steel wire brushes (uses less frequently as they're more abrasive)
- pouch of precision wrenches (imperial and metric) his are bladed, Moody tools wrenches (mfg.) prefer the thinnest tips
- microfiber cloths
- jig for soldering typeslugs on typearms
- pouch with various typewriter specific pliers:
- 3 prong pliers (total of 9 prongs) for making bends/forming typebars (especially making bends in the middle of bars rather than the end.;
- peening bend pliers;
- bending pliers for sideways bends esp. with thinner typebars;
- vertical adjustment pliers (with rollers) not good for making adjustments of 3mm or more;
- forming pliers with screws on the end to rotate heads for bending, peening and cutting;
- peening pliers (bending by metal displacement)
- Magnetized screwdrivers
- forceps
- screw grabber (active capture)
- spring hooks (push/pull)
- nylon brushes for dusting
- needle nose pliers
- t-bender with slotted head for forming metal
- small bottles for mineral spirits and sewing machine oil. They have small metal tips for precision application.

Royal KMM FPE HH KH 10 T1 B64 Typewriter Ribbon Install Rewind Respool Replace by [[Phoenix Typewriter]]
The spools for the standard Royal typewriters (KMM, FPE, HH, KH, etc) have a custom metal mechanism for their auto-reverse. The spools are known as the T1 (which is the same as General Ribbon part # T1-77B , T1-77BR, and Nu-Kote B64.) If winding on universal ribbon onto them, remove the eyelette which isn't needed and may interfere with the auto reverse.
The function of the mechanism is fairly similar to that of the Remington, but the mechanism is on the spool itself rather than on the spindle.
If necessary, Ribbons Unlimited carries these metal spools: https://www.ribbonsunlimited.com/6N064-Royal-Standard-Electric-Ribbon-64-p/6n064.htm

Royal HHE Typewriter Demo of Features and Functions by [[Cincinnati Typewriter]]
Orange and black typewriter painted when they thought Bengals were going to Super Bowl.
Sadly didn't get the purpose of the numbered guides... presupposed they were in millimeters, but knew it wasn't that.
Very shaky video... nauseating.
Didn't differentiate between permanent and temporary variable line levels. Didn't get the way these work at all.
Missed subtleties of Magic Margin, but did well enough.
"strikers" instead of slugs or hammers
Painted the colors on the bichrome wrong.
Only partially understands touch control. Definitely doesn't know how to adjust them.
Definitely don't use this as an example.
Seems like an amateur painting and (maybe) cleaning up typewriters from home. I don't think I'd trust him based on this video.

"I wouldn't write a long book on here." What the hell is she talking about? This was the entire purpose of this machine.

The Minimal Complete Typewriter Collection by [[Joe Van Cleave]]
Joe Van Cleave's personal six categories in a (his) typewriter collection: - Standard manual - medium-sized portable (largest segment in the collector's space) - lightweight portable or ultra-portable - typebar electric - IBM Selectric - Electronic typewriter (thermal typewriter), portable, quiet, battery operation.
Joe's minimal collection based on what he's got in his collection currently and the condition that they're in: - Royal KMM (his only standard) - Hermes 3000 (boxy middle era) - Olympia Splendid 33 (he's also got a Royal Mercury & Groma Kalibri) - Olympia Reporter - Selectric I (the only one he's got) cloth, ribbon cartridge system, no lift-off correction - Canon Typestar 220
Some of Joe's most important criteria in a typewriter: he prefers an elite face, 1 1/2 spacing, and bichrome setting.
At the time of this recording Joe had 30 typewriters.

SCM Electric Typewriters by [[Joe Van Cleave]]
Tips for cleaning the Smith-Corona 6 series electric typewriters and details about how they work.
S-C also made this series of typewriter for both Sears and Singer under their branding. (including the Singer Electric in this video.)
The belts on the electric motor and cams was originally a rubber 'V' belt which is no longer manufactured. Using 1/8" round cross-section o-rings of appropriate sizes (for water cannister applications) is the recommended replacement, however one may need to slightly move the drive motor down a bit so that the belt doesn't hit the frame of the typewriter and thereby destroying it over time.
Cleaning and lubricating the drive motors and moving pieces before using may help before trying out a typewriter which has been sitting for long periods of time.
Some later models had an electric return, which can tend to be violent. Electro 220 and Coronet Automatic 12 have an additional clutch and draw band (and lack of return lever on the carriage) for their electric returns.

Adjustment screw for the Olympia SM3 on feet shift set up is just to the side of the ribbon spool/cup. Gerren indicates that he's never been able to do this adjustment properly with the typewriter body on, so it's much easier to do with it off.
The bottom adjustment point (through the side of the frame) allows one to set the base line for the on foot for the lower case letters while the top one sets the upper case.
Gerren credits Phoenix Typewriter for most of the material he's learned in terms of fixing typewriters.
Bill at Philly Typewriter has an apprentice program, but there aren't many shops that do this. (Gerren makes a joke that it's free (child) labor.)
Trip point adjustments
The trip point is the point at which the typebar trips the movement of the escapement.
The adjustment point for it is reachable by removing the small protecting plate on the bottom at the back of the machine. The escapement trigger is just underneath it.
The lower one (top if the machine is upside down) is for the lower case; the top one is for the upper case.
Screwing the screw in will cause the trip to occur sooner.
Spacebar adjustment mechanisms [13:00]
There are two, one set in the front of the bottom of the typewriter and two screws in the back, right near the escapement.
If the spacebar is hit too many times while cleaning and repairing, the spacebar won't work properly and will need some minor adjustment when the body is put back on.
He shows at the end how to remove the keytops of the individual keys.
The final check is the shift lock mechanism to make sure its aligned properly.

Part 3: COMPLETE Olympia SM3 Service/Set Up Guide- Carriage Adjustments/ Ring and Cylinder by [[The HotRod Typewriter Co.]]
Not mentioned in the video is that, at least on his model, most of the common adjustment points have screws or nuts which have a brassy look rather than silvery almost as a means of highlighting them as subtle adjustment points for improving the performance of the machine.
Sometimes the carriage lock mechanism on the Olympia SM3 may not clear the carriage rail completely and this can result in it rubbing on the returns which results in a zipper or grinding sound. Forming the bar that connects the lever to the mechanism can quickly remedy this issue. See timestamp 2:17
Fore and aft adjustments on carriages
Side to side adjustment on carriage:
Forward and backward carriage adjustments (on both sides):
Adjustment for the spacing between the carriage rails:
This adjustment is rarely done unless there is something drastically wrong with the machine Details at timestamp
Adjustment on the carriage stoppers for how much bounce the carriage shift might have as well as how high or low the carriage sits at it's lowest point using the triangle sliding bracket on each side of the carriage with two screws. If these force the carriage too high, it can affect where the type sits in terms of potentially interfering with the bichrome settings to make letters (especially the tallest ones) have two colors when they should only have one. Details at timestamp 8:14
Adjustment on the rear springs for how light or heavy the carriage shift may be. Raise the spring and then adjust the small "nut" on the top. Details at timestamp 9:52
Ring and Cylinder adjustment for Olympia SM3<br /> Details at timestamp
Gerren doesn't seem to understand (or perhaps doesn't discuss it) some of the mechanics behind this adjustment beyond the distance of the platen to the typeface, but the usual suggestion is that the typeface shouldn't actually strike the paper and/or the platen. Ideally there should be just enough space between the typeface and the platen that an addition sheet of paper can be easily slid between the two along with the ribbon and another sheet of paper. This will allow the typeface to just kiss the ribbon and force the ink onto the front sheet of paper. Doing this will help to protect the integrity of the paper being typed on (ie, no deep imprints being pressed into the paper -- often seen with the period), as well as the integrity of the platen (preventing chips and imprints into the rubber, especially if it has been hardened), and the longer term integrity of the ribbon which can tend to be cut into by the typeface if it's too close.
From a physics perspective there is some minor amount of flex in the typebar arm between where the "hammer" at the bottom of the typebar hits the "anvil" (aka ring) and the top of the typeface which, when typing at speed will tend to "throw" the typeface a tad farther than it would hit when the hammer hits the anvil when simply holding it against the ring manually.

Toaster-Typewriter – An investigation of humor in design by [[CreativeApplications.Net]]
A cross between a typewriter and a toaster that writes by toasting bread.
The toaster-typewriter is the work of [Ritika Kedia], and it forms part of her thesis in product design at the Parsons School of Design, New York. It’s written up very much from an artistic rather than a tech perspective, but it’s no less ingenious for that in the way it uses letters formed from hot wire on a clay substrate, mounted on the end of the typewriter arms in front of a toaster.<br /> —This Typewriter Types Toast by Jenny List

"The Typist" follows the life and work of Larry Tillemans, believed to be the last living clerk-typist from the Nuremberg Trials. As a sergeant in the U.S. 3rd Army, it was Larry's duty to document the testimony of victims and perpetrators of the Holocaust -- information that deeply affected the young Minnesotan. After years of carrying this emotional burden, Larry decided to share his experiences with as many people as possible, a tireless effort that brought the value of first-person testimony to a world struggling to remember the lessons of Nuremberg.

Passion of the Nerd aka @popotoproductions3015 in The Toolbox Fallacy
This wasn't quite the toolbox fallacy definition I expected, but was a larger philosophical framing of a smaller version specific to getting things done (GTD).
Many people move from tool to tool hoping the next one will somehow "fix" things. In reality, it's having a tool and USING IT which creates progress.
Remember that it's rare that supposed innovation will be the fix, but picking a road and traveling down it will at least get you somewhere.
