Description:
The only typebar electric in my collection. Great machine, just not for late night typing.
I have lined the case with foam to reduce some of the noise but it is still quite loud.
Having some issue with the ribbon leaving a lot of smudging on the page, think it's related to the ribbon.

I'm a graphic designer and printer by trade, living just outside of Newcastle, Australia but I grew up on a sheep farm in central New South Wales. Just down here tinkering with typewriters, drawing pictures, growing veggies in the back garden and hanging out with my fiance and our three cats.
