    I really like the way you do this, I think it would be a shame to lose the original finish and was really pleased to see that you don't repaint like some others would do. Nice piece that reminded me of learning typing at school about a million years ago!

    Amazing job, one thing, I and I'm sure many others would like a little "history" of the units you repair/restore, how old are they what year were they made etc. Thanks!

      If it's not too late to answer, this appears to be a 5S series, which was made from 1949 to 1958. He doesn't show the serial number, so that's as far as I can specify. I'm working on the same one - mine is from 1953.

    Amazing content, the only suggestion I would have is to tell us what products you’re using for cleaning the various components. Amazing to see such an expert at work!

    Extremely underrated video, oh my goodness!!! Also, very satisfying to watch and listen to. Absolutely baffled this doesn't have more views! I'll be returning to this one again, for sure.
    May I ask what the name of that squeeze bottle is called for the application of the lacquer thinner, and/or do you have a link for it?
    I'm subscribed, and looking forward to checking out your channel some more, as well as for more new videos!

    What spray are you using and what’s that machine called that removed all the screws?

    Do you have some tips on fixing misaligned text on the left side of the keyboard. Which screw should I loosen to lower those slugs? Thanks for your knowledge and work :)

      I have the same issue on my typewriter, but I opted to not fix it. I feel that it gives my typewriter some character and looks unique whenever I type letters on it.

      It’s been awhile but it’s probably a dilution of Simple Green degreaser.
