Hello, Marco. Welcome. The group is open to all forms of mechanical 
telegraphy, but the vast majority of members are Teletype owners. I'm in 
the UK so am a former Creed owner. I also had an Olivetti model at one 
time. It was built like a clock - long spindles the full width held in 
place by end plates. It seemed impossible to service without specialist 
equipment so I threw it in a skip and got a Siemens T100 instead. I 
don't envy you the task of restoring your Olivetti machine!

Cheers,
Sam
(formerly G8EXV)
