[GreenKeys] Fwd: Re: Teletype Model 32 ASR Chad Box

[Daniel Jones]

Very interesting designs.  

If there is nobody printing these both the box and the knob and someone wants one since my buddy doesn’t have to do any design he would probably be happy with just charging for the material and the time to print it.  That is if the original designers are not printing themselves.  

Just throwing it out there it wouldn’t be bad to have a single source.
