Back again after three years, running a full time brick and mortar Typewriter Repaur service and shop in 2024. ASK ME ANYTHING!
Hello again follow redditors! Iam a Typewriter Repair Tech, Ask Me Anything!
My name (as you might have been able to guess) is Lucas! For the past decade l've been repairing and restoring typewriters from all eras and all corners of the world I also sell machines, and all the extras you'd need with them from ribbons to parts to accessories. My work has covered machines from the 1880s all the way up to the 2020s.
My website shows a few news segments about my business and photos of what I do, and for the AMA proof I've attached a photo of me in my shop with the info on the paper:)
In June of this year, I finally got moved into a brick and mortar location to help streamline my business and get typewriters to more people far more efficiently. I'm excited to talk to you all and share the typewriter world!
EDIT: Looks like I misspelled "repair" in the title. Oops.
EDIT 2: Thanks to everyone for the questions! Going to close out now, but I'm always available to answer anything else privately :)
