reply to u/Omega48boar at https://reddit.com/r/typewriters/comments/1knsgn8/pressure/
I was wondering what the upper limit psi would be for blowing out the gunk using an air compressor.
The highest air compressor pressures may be determined by your particular compressor's (or air canister's) maximum output as well as the maximum suggested output for any accessories you're attaching to it. Many basic air gun attachments have a max PSI of around 100 PSI even when the compressor will produce much higher outputs.
Generally I find that for most benchwork on typewriters anywhere from 50-100 PSI is generally more than sufficient.
Depending on the condition of your surroundings, I recommend putting a towel (or similar material) underneath your typewriter with a solid backstop so that if any springs, screws, or other valuable parts are blown loose, they're caught pretty quickly by the towel rather than flying across the room or down onto the floor out of sight.
Higher pressure settings may be useful in some cases. One should always take care to be wearing protective garments and eyewear to prevent being spattered with caustic chemicals. Similarly protecting plastics, paint, and decals on your typewriter with appropriate cover is advised with some solvents.
Operating the compressor, which can cause sparks as well as heat, at a reasonable distance from potential flammable vapors is also a mandatory safety precaution. Using volatile solvents frequently seen in typewriter cleaning procedures should only be done in the open in a well-ventilated area using appropriate masks to prevent inhalation of vapors. Long term exposure to vapors of substances like lacquer thinner can cause lung damage, COPD, and other adverse health effects.
For extended usage pending the sorts of air gun tips which might be used for typewriter cleaning, one is also well advised to use ear protection to prevent long term hearing damage/loss.

Everyone mentioned most of the usual tricks, but one.
To get your sticky typewriter keys working again, while you're flushing out the segment with your solvent of choice (lacquer thinner, paint thinner, mineral spirits, alcohol, etc.), actually move the typebars using the keys or by other means. This will help to get them moving and allow the solvent and subsequently compressed air to help flush the oil, dust, hair, etc. out of your machine. You've already got a mechanical cleaning device of sorts (the typebar itself) inside the segment, so move it while you're flushing it out!
It may take a few repeated treatments/attempts to get it all clear for all the keys, but it's far easier than taking everything apart.
reply to u/nogaesallowed at https://www.reddit.com/r/typewriters/comments/1cp75ln/how_do_you_clean_a_1mm_gap/

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.

reply to u/letsjustwrite and u/CowCommercial1992 at https://reddit.com/r/typewriters/comments/1iilo0f/re_inking_ribbons/
None of these are really prohibitively expensive, especially when purchased in bulk. Both Baco Ribbon and Fine Line offer black/red bichrome ribbon in most of these materials for a very reasonable price:
- nylon ribbon $0.10 - $0.15/yard
- silk ribobn $0.33 to $0.40/yard
- cotton ribbon $0.25/yard
If you're going to buy even 3-6 spools of ribbon at individual prices of $9-20 per spool, you may as well make the investment in a half or full reel of inked typewriter ribbon and save yourself a lot of hassle. My guess is that if you're buying your own ribbon in small quantities, you're going to pay even more than these prices to have uninked ribbon. Unless you have some serious equipment and technique, you're highly unlikely to be able to ink your own bichrome ribbon, so you're stuck with monochrome.
While using ink stamp pads is "doable", it's a lot of work for a very poor result.
I've yet to hear of more than a very tiny handful of people who are interested in the art or process of this to bother with attempting to re-ink typewriter ribbon, silk or otherwise. Generally, if they do it for any reason (other than the one time "fun of it"), it's for environmental reasons rather than pricing ones.
As an inveterate tinkerer, I've tried some of my own re-inking experiments to very mixed results. I've given up bespoke ribbon for bulk purchases.

There are generally only a few configurations for ribbon vibrators with respect to ribbon threading, look at a few manuals here and surely yours will be covered by one: https://site.xavier.edu/polt/typewriters/tw-manuals.html
Typically the rule is that the ribbon sits closer to the paper at the typing point than any piece of the vibrator and is then threaded through the arms of the vibrator. From there it often goes through holders at the ribbon cup and then into the spool.

Mike Rossi on antiques for the collector
For the inveterate collectors out there, I remember Mike Rossi's old TV show and recently saw he was dispensing advice about antiques, buying/selling, and collecting on his relatively new Instagram account: https://www.instagram.com/antiquesalley/

follow up reply:
After some additional research on the typewriter database, the YY = 92 (where the serial number is of the form: FP[P,E,S]-XX-YY-#######, where XX is the platen length and YY is for other special features) indicates that the machine has 46 character keys (and thus 46*2=96 glyphs on the slugs). There are also examples of YY=88 with 44 keys versus the standard 42 or 43 keys.
This means that your machine has a few extra keys not found on their standard keyboards at the time.

reply:
I've been looking at the typewriter database and have been able to discern the fact that the designator YY=88 seems to indicate that an FP had a Royal HH-like palm tabulator, where the serial number is of the form: FP[P,E,S]-XX-YY-#######, where XX is the platen length and YY is for other special features.
I can't help but wonder what the YY = 92 indicates on Martyn's machine.

After some continued research on the TWdB, I've come to realize that the "88" in the serial number has likely nothing to do with the palm tabulator.
The 88 is for an extra character count due to more keys (44) versus the more standard 42 or 43 keys and similarly some examples with a 92 in the serial number corresponds to 46 characters. So there isn't a designator in the serial number for a palm tabulator.

For a second, I thought perhaps the "88" in the serial number was a designator for the palm tabulator, but one of the other two in the database doesn't have that option (visually), though the single picture (of 5853) looks like it may have broken off or been removed on that example: - https://typewriterdatabase.com/1960-royal-fp.1241.typewriter - https://typewriterdatabase.com/1961-royal-fp.5853.typewriter
If you upload some additional photos of yours to the database, perhaps we can puzzle out what the "88" designator means if it's not the palm tabulator functionality?
The E on FPE means "elite" or 12 characters per inch. The "13" indicates a 13 inch wide platen. The raw serial number seems to indicate it was made in 1960: https://typewriterdatabase.com/royal.72.typewriter-serial-number-database

FP models were designated with either a FPE (for elite typeface machines), FPP (for pica typeface machines), or FPS (for special order typeface machines that could have been fitted with 5, 10, 12, 16 or 20 pitch type, and almost any type face). The FP name is a homage to Fortune Peter Ryan who at one point was the President of Royal Typewriter.

And is it true that you enjoy taking typewriters apart and putting them back together? Doherty : Of course. It’s just that I’m so attracted to these objects that I want to look inside them, to understand how they work. It’s a form of learning, for me it would be a dream to have a shop specializing in repairing typewriters. Maybe one day… Among the many, I love the Valentine model by Olivetti, sooner or later I absolutely want to visit Ivrea.
The Olivetti Valentine is one of Pete Doherty's favorites.

Michael Faletra’s chapter does just that, arguing that Geoffrey’s work supportscolonialist policies.
-
Welsh speakers, too, also read Geoffrey’s work with deep interest,and this Welsh reception is the subject of Owain Wyn Jones’s chapter, whichdemonstrates how his history fits into Welsh historiography.
Interesting perhaps with respect to my work on orality in Welsh tradition.
-
A Companion to Geoffrey of Monmouth introduces Geoffrey’s oeuvre to first-time readers and provides a synthesis of current scholarship, all while offer-ing new readings of his work. This volume also seeks to bring Celtic studiesand Galfridian studies into closer dialogue, especially given the importanceof Wales to Geoffrey and his work. To that end, many of the essays are writtenby specialists in Welsh history and literature, whose voices have at times beenhard to discern in the general din of Galfridian scholarship. We have also askedcontributors to focus on all of Geoffrey’s work, and not merely the Arthuriansections. Geoffrey has been well-served by Arthurian scholarship, and we haveno desire to replicate many of the excellent recent studies in that field.7 Instead,we hope a holistic approach to his work will reveal subtleties often overlookedin scholarship that concentrates primarily on the Arthurian portions.
A fairly concise statement of the aims of this book
-
though he claimed to be nothing more than a translator – therebyconforming to medieval literature’s aversion to originality, at least outwardly –he remains one of the most strikingly original writers of the Middle Ages.
And isn't this just what we would broadly expect of a culture moving from primary orality into literacy? The old wisdom passed down through memory would be prized over the invention of the new.
Until the written tradition can be fully relied upon, originality wouldn't be prized the way it is in current Western culture.
We should expect writers to say (even if lying) that their material is based on prior sources and not created by them.
Of course perhaps the primary oral bards may have exhibited this pattern themselves and used their own creativity to embellish prior "close truths". Just how far did originality go in the bardic tradition?
Compare this with using written statements to actively tell lies in the opening centuries of literacy.
-
For a list of PM manuscripts, see Crick, SC, pp. 330–32.
There are 80 copies of the manuscript of Prophetiae Merlini by Geoffrey of Monmouth.
-
Geoffrey included the PM in his next work, the De gestis Britonum(“On the Deeds of the Britons”, hereafter abbreviated DGB). He had finishedthis work by January 1139 at the latest, when Henry of Huntingdon reports hisastonishment at finding a copy at the abbey of Le Bec.3 The count of survivingmedieval manuscripts of the DGB is now 225, making Geoffrey one of the mostwidely-read secular authors from medieval Britain.4
-
third and final extant work is the Vita Merlini (“The Life of Merlin”, hereafterabbreviated VM), completed around 1150 and extant in only four independentmanuscripts.6 Written in dactylic hexameter, this poem recounts how MerlinSilvester goes mad after battle and retires to the woods to live; this enigmaticand difficult work seems to be deeply in touch with Welsh literature, thoughits ultimate sources are unknown.
-
Until recently, Geoffrey’s history was called the Historia regum Britanniae(“The History of the Kings of Britain”), but Michael D. Reeve’s textual studyhas confirmed that the title used in the earliest manuscripts, and by Geoffreyhimself, was the De gestis Britonum.5 After much debate among contributors,this volume begins the lugubrious process of using the original title in place ofthe received one.
-
Moreover, some Latin titles that are transparenthave been left to stand, as well as the Flores Historiarum and the Liber Floridus,both of which would require explanations of what flowers have to do with his-tory and rhetoric.

Henley, Georgia, and Joshua Byron Smith, eds. A Companion to Geoffrey of Monmouth. Brill’s Companions to European History 22. Brill, 2020. http://archive.org/details/oapen-20.500.12657-42537.
Obviously this isn't an inconsequential amount of scholarship (575+ pp) to have included in Reeve's volume.
While it's nice to identify what is not in the reviewed volume, it's probably better to frame it that way rather than to seemingly blame the authors/editors for not having included such a massive amount of work. This sort of poor framing is too often seen in the academic literature. Reporting on results and work and putting it out is much more valuable in the short and long term than worrying so much about what is not there. Authors should certainly self-identify open questions for their readers and create avenues to follow them up, but they don't need to be all things to all people.

He recommends provid-ing machines that are sturdy enough towithstand heavy use, supervising chil-dren and others who might be too roughon delicate machines, and staying at-tentive to all of the machines.
The majority of working typewriters are really no more delicate than any other machine out there. The growing myth that they're delicate kills me (and their future).

Turboplaten Type by [[Daniel Marleau]]
-
-
www.reddit.com www.reddit.com
-
I actually have pretty good feedback to share on this... I bought the remaining inventory from the guy that does these about 3 years back. We initially had a verbal agreement about me taking over the turboplaten business and we discussed the process in detail while loading a truck full of typewriters, but as the day wore on he seemed a little reluctant and when we started getting into inner/outer diameter measurements and specific PVC tubing he kinda clammed up. *For the record, I wasn't put out by it really as I had virtually zero intention of starting a platen business and told him as such- that any I made would likely only be for machines I sold. But it definitely felt weird as he literally gave me his custom built lathe and much of his tubing stock. 🤷🏻♂️ That said, I know how to make these from start to finish. The quality is decent enough, and the ones I got from him and the ones I made myself perform pretty well for the most part. However, I found some machines react poorly to the different material - causing escapement skip. The PVC material is bouncier than natural rubber, and doesn't play well with ALL typewriters without being specifically messed with during construction. His method of heat treatment of the tubing is what's supposed to combat this, but it's almost impossible to gauge the amount of heat needed for various machines specific escapements. All that to say; They're an interesting concept in theory, and given the right equipment could be a compelling alternative for natural rubber. But given what I saw and experienced in the process, I'd have a difficult time justifying paying essentially twice what JJ Short charges for one. Not saying you shouldn't, just sharing my experience.

By 1934, he had published a compilation of those short stories, led by the Depression-era story of a young struggling writer called “The Daring Young Man on the Flying Trapeze,” which made him famous at 26 years old. Saroyan was so in demand, his critics compared him to a cult leader.
-
The word “Saroyanesque” became an adjective for any story that captured the enthusiasm and optimism of the human spirit.
-
“I certainly didn’t gamble away every penny,” he wrote in a 1961 memoir. “… I drank some of it away, and I bought a raincoat.”

"Working but needs new ribbon" is almost always seller's code for I have no idea if it really works, but I'm going to try to sell you this machine for the price of a fully functioning machine that was just serviced by a professional shop despite the fact that I just took it out of grandpa's barn and I'm not sure if the mouse inside is dead or not. Also, I can't afford $10 to replace an old ribbon to truly participate in the charade of the price I'm going to try to fleece you with.

If you want to tell people Tom Hanks taught you to change a typewriter ribbon: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBbsNKaVAB0. There are lots of other YouTube videos out there for specific machines as well as reviews of them.
You can definitely test out a machine without ribbon, but if they're trying to charge you over $100 for a machine, it really should have fresh ribbon.

“The China Syndrome,” a 2011 paper on the impact of trade withChina by a powerful troika of economists—David Autor, David Dorn,and Gordon Hanson—underscored what is going on. The empiricalstudy is particularly significant because it marks a shift in consensusthinking in the academy. In the debate about the causes of growingincome inequality, American economists have tended to opt fortechnology as the driving force. But, drawing on detailed data fromlocal labor markets in the United States, the authors of “The ChinaSyndrome” argue that globalization, and in particular trade with themighty Middle Kingdom, are today also having a huge impact onAmerican blue-collar workers: “Conservatively, it explains one-quarterof the contemporaneous aggregate decline in U.S. manufacturingemployment.”

In the US, you can get one hundred 4" mascara brushes for around $5. Eye Tees (cottton swabs with a firm point on one end and a flat tip on the other) cost roughly the same. You'll find them at most beauty supply stores or online. These get into tight spaces. Dipped in mineral spirits (or whichever solvent you've come to like), the brush gets the stuff loose and the Tee wipes it away. Blasting air helps as well. Works for me. Others will have other ideas.

Twins broadcaster Cory Provus honors late mentor Bob Uecker by [[Bobby Nightengale]]
-
“It was like this almost 11x17 spiral bound book,” Provus said. “It probably had 185, 190 pages, and I had to carry that. I had to fill that out every day. I would write the names, the numbers, the defense, the starters. … He taught me his way of scoring and to this day, that’s how I score. “In a blowout, when a runner will take second base on indifference, as Bob Uecker would say and write in his scorecard, ‘Who cares?’ He would put a ‘WC.’ ”
WC - "Who Cares"
-
The Brewers hosted an invitation-only celebration of Uecker’s life at the Miller High Life Theater in downtown Milwaukee on Wednesday night.
This sounds like a true sendoff!

On Sunday, when Willi Castro homered in a blowout Twins loss, Provus paid homage to Uecker’s home run call:“Castro in the air to right. Hey, get up, get up! Get outta here! Gone!” Provus said on the Twins TV broadcast.

Mathematics with Typewriters
What you're suggesting is certainly doable, and was frequently done in it's day, but it isn't the sort of thing you want to subject yourself to while you're doing your Ph.D. (and probably not even if you're doing it as your stress-releiving hobby on the side.)
I several decades of heavy math and engineering experience and really love typewriters. I even have a couple with Greek letters and other basic math glyphs available, but I wouldn't ever bother with typing out any sort of mathematical paper using a typewriter these days.
Unless you're in a VERY specific area that doesn't require more than about 10 symbols, you're highly unlikely to be pleased with the result and it's going to require a huge amount of hand drawn symbols and be a pain to add in the graphs and illustrations. Even if you had a 60's+ Smith-Corona with a full set of math fonts using their Chageable Type functionality, you'd spend far more time trying to typeset your finished product than it would be worth.
You can still find some typewritten textbooks from the 30s and 40s in math and even some typed lecture notes collections into the 1980s and they are all a miserable experience to read. As an example, there's a downloadable copy of Claude Shannon's master's thesis at MIT from 1940, arguably one of the most influential and consequential masters theses ever written, that only uses basic Boolean Algebra and it's just dreadful to read this way: https://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/11173 (Incidentally, a reasonable high schooler should be able to read and appreciate this thesis today, which shows you just how far things have come since the 1940s.)
If you're heavily enough into math to be doing a Ph.D. you not only should be using TeX/LaTeX, but you'll be much, much, much happier with the output in the long run. It's also a professional skill any mathematician should have.
As a professional aside, while typewriten mathematical texts may seem like a fun and quirky thing to do, there probably isn't an awful lot of audience that would appreciate them. Worse, most professional mathematicians would automatically take a typescript verison as the product of a quack and dismiss it out of hand.
tl;dr in terms of The Godfather: Buy the typewriter, leave the thesis in LaTeX.

The majority of American machines (Royal, Remington, Smith-Corona) are 6 lines per inch and either 10 characters per inch (pica) or 12 CPI (elite). My guess would be that you'll see about 90% of people's machines covered across these specs with a roughly 60/40 split for pica vs. elite when it comes to planning print runs.
Most European machines are like the Olympias and are labeled as 2.3 m/m which when multiplied out (25.4mm/inch x 1 character/2.3mm) gives 11.043 CPI. Generally they're also 6 lines per inch. In the US, most of the common (and still popular) imported typewriters are going to be the Olympia SM2, SM3, SM4, SM7, and SM9s and the three incarnations of the Hermes 3000.
I've got a small collection of 50 mostly American machines across six decades with a few less common typefaces including Vogue, Gothic, and Congress Elite if you need some machines for nearby testing (I'm in Altadena, though temporarily still displaced). Most of my available machines are listed at https://typewriterdatabase.com/typewriters.php?hunter_search=7248
There are definitely some smaller 16, 18, 20, and even 24 CPI machines, but they tend to have come on the larger Olympia standards which weigh in at 30-40 pounds and are unlikely to be lugged to ballparks the way that smaller portables and ultraportables might be. There are some larger format 6 CPI machines, but they tend to be much rarer and are more often found on 1970s Smith-Coronas. If you want to go crazy, I'd guess you're aware of Ted Munk's collection of typefaces and catalogs that can be found at: https://typecast.munk.org/category/typewriter-typestylesfonts/
Incidentally, for fun, Bill Madden's book Yankees, Typewriters, Scandals, and Cooperstown: A Baseball Memoir is set for release tomorrow.

If you're curious about some of the technical details and how the are affected by the distribution of typefaces and sizes, I laid out some of them the other day: https://www.reddit.com/r/BaseballScorecards/comments/1jn2475/comment/mks9rbc/
Lou also has some great examples of scorekeeping across display sizes and level of data in his offerings at https://thirty81press.com/.
The broader issue for most scorers is the limitation to 8.5 x 11" paper which is the most common page size for the ubiquitous portable and ultraportable typewriters from the mid-century. While there are some portables with carriages and platens that might accomodate up to 12" wide paper, they're not super common.
To get machines with wider platens to get 11x14 or 11x17, you're going to need the significantly larger standard machines and unless you're rich enough to have a suite that you can securely store one in or a journalist with your own booth, not many baseball fans are going to cart a 35-45+ pound typewriter with them to all their games. Though this wouldn't prevent the fan viewing at home from scoring this way easily. My example above was done on a standard width carriage on a standard machine, but I did have several options to do it on a 12", 14", and even two 16" standard typewriters. Interestingly, most of my larger carriage machines are elite 12/6 (12CPI with 6 lines/inch) formats, and I don't think Lou has designed yet for that standard which would allow for an additional 15 characters to be distributed amidst the columns (while still keeping a minimum of 1/2" margins for some balanced white space). I'll be tinkering around with some of this myself in the coming week or so on 11x14" paper using a 15" wide platen on an elite machine to see how things might look.
Perhaps a modified format at 8.5 x 11 that alternates the teams and splits a 12 inning game format across three sheets so that the typist can type down a single page without swapping sheets every half inning and realigning their page every time? But this would cause a lot of formating change versus traditional layouts to do so.
I've also been tinkering with using small space characters like the - and the _ to indicate data (with or without the use of the variable line spacing mechanism) for things like tracking RBIs. The underline is particularly useful for this in Lou's three space layout.
