Hi  All,

I acquired a model 15 lately. It is in horrible condition but it  was 
very cheap. Mice lived and died in it, moisture did its job and rust  is 
everywhere.

BUT...

all keys but one are there, the case  is in great shape and light green 
metallic, the glas plate is there and  whole and it has its crank. after 
some poking and applying IMAL and oil,  the mechanics are responsive, so 
it should be possible to make it working  again, albeit very ugly to look 
at.

It has a governed motor and a  cast iron base labeled BB-49.

My idea is to fix the machine, but not  clean it. that way i can use it 
as a prop in a creapy setting, covered  with cobwebs, but springing to 
life all of a sudden and printing on  yellowed paper a message from the 
past...

anyway, in looking at a  schematic (2217wd.pdf) there seems to be some 
kind of switch with  resistors connected to terminals 23 and 33 to set 
the speed of the motor.  where should that be situated in the machine?

other thoughts are to  scrap the machine for parts and keep the keycaps 
for my model 14 and give  the remainder to someone in the benelux or 
germany as i am situated in  Arnhem, The Netherlands.

any thoughts?
