I have slightly numb fingers in my right hand from a diabetic condition, so I thought I could see if I could keep up with this typist. I sat down to my 1959 Royal FPP16 upright typewriter to do some slow, deliberate typing. It turned out I was a bit rusty when I started, but pretty soon I was able to keep up with the typist on the portable on the other side!! After awhile I was even able to type faster than the typist on the portable!! Pretty soon about a fifth of the video I had a double-spaced paper filled. Just the way I used to do it!! Felt right proud of myself to prove to myself that I hadn’t lost my touch on the keyboard!! I cried a tear of joy.
I think I just might do one of these videos myself. I’ve got a lot of interesting typewriters to choose from-anything from a 1913 L. C. Smith upright to a 1968-ish Smith-Corona-Marchant script electric midsized.
I just did the exercise, but this time I was able to complete an entire page SINGLE-SPACED!! A third of the way through on a manual typewriters. I’m not washed up as a typist after all. Uh-oh!! Getting weepy-eyed again!
Thank you so much for sharing your story John, it sounds like we share the same love for typing! I'm happy my video helped you practice and improve! Well done!
Worth giving those type slugs a clean, a lot of them are causing the colored in "o, e, s," characters. Easy to clean and you'll get cleaner text out. Really nice and calming video, it's nice to hear this these days.
You Sey:...."You can imagine that you are in a office in the 1940s with the sounds from this typewriter"...Ohh yes I imagine it !!! huge rooms with a desk next to each other with approximately 80 to 150 machines all at the same time ... it is beautiful but not relaxing at all !! LOL
Thanks for watching Ruben, I agree with you haha! The sound of one typewriter is different to that of 80-150 machines! Feel free to check out the rest of my channel!
