0 Points, Typewriter Hunter

A typewriter enthusiast from Riga, Latvia, who had started working with typewriters back in 2020. Typewriter was a dream of my girlfriend so I wanted to get one and repair it just to present it to her as a gift, but then it turned into a whole restoration process, with disassembling almost the whole machine, as almost nothing in it was working as intended. With help from people on Reddit and YouTube videos, I managed to restore that black cyrillic Erika 10 and it became a reason for me to keep my interest in these machines. As I always liked putting together various things like model kits and LEGOs, these thing were like a dream coming true. Now my girlfriend and I have more than 30 machines in our collection and each and every single weekend some of them are getting better and better due to me restoring them.
