Description:
Here we got a Facit Privat the third of mine actully. I bought it as a little of a weekend project, I got it for a really cheap price because the paper didn't want to advance but afte some sewing machine oil and moveing some of the parts around it was allmost like new except for the carriage return lever. As you can see on the images it got a rubberband on it at the moment but that is because I'm all out of any sort of metal wire to bend into shape to put under it to act as a spring.

Hi my name is Kewin and I'm a 24 years old from Sweden. I have a few hobbies like drawing and playing guitar but I do also like myself some project here and there which is where my interest in typewriters fits in. I have always collected things through my life but I did not expect typewriters to be my next big passion in collecting. I started collecting typewriters in the beginning of 2022 and so far I have 95* of them (4 of which is currently disassembled) . I find it really enjoyable to pickup a typewriter at a thrift store/second hand and starting to clean it up and get it to a working condition to the best of my ability and knowledge. (Excuse all the dog hairs in my pictures, I do actually try to remove the hair before taking the pictures. xD) Cheers!
