    С 14 лет зарабатывала машинисткой, печатала на всех видах механических пишущих машин, затем на электрических. Сначала это был основной заработок, потом, после получения высшего образования, источник дополнительного заработка. Так приятно смотреть, как ремонтируют старого, всеми забытого друга и кормилицу. Полвека строчила, а вот машинку левшу вижу впервые. У неё перевод строчки под левую руку. Большое спасибо за профессиональное спасение теперь антикварного предмета!

    The texture on the metal piece that surrounds the key levers is called "hammered". Your product looks really good, but there is an easier method that comes in a spray can. It can be found online and is made by rustoeum. Hope this helps with future projects!

    As someone who worked on office equipment for some years in a former life I just knew I would not like this when you used pliers to undo a nut at the early part. Then when you sprayed paint over all the working mechanisms hiding the rust, I decided you were not doing a restoration at all, but just making a short term shiny object. I would like to have seen you strip out the typebars and all the links and springs from the combs and done a real de-rust. Having said that I did like the way you cleaned the small parts in the jar with stones and the drill. I will have to remember that one, thank you.

    Why would you try to replicate a common, easy to find paint? It is cheap & easy to find at any hardware store or wherever paint is sold. It is a hammer type paint. You can buy it in a rattle can & it is also available as a powder coat paint. Why make a job harder than it has to be? 😂
