Description:
Wanted to try a noiseless after seeing the typebar mechanism. This was acquired from the Dax collection in 9/2020. Ole Kehlet replaced springs for carriage return arm and
swapped in different feed rollers.
Tyoefeel different than my other typewriters and noise is soft. I like it--adapting to it did not require any time.

Typewriter user since childhood--"Endofthehall Press" (produced a magazine for my big sister, I did) and avid hunter for many years. Partial to portables/ultraportables, but do love my standard models too. I use my typewriters for letters, recipes, lists, stories, pondering, and in art/fabric creations.
