Hello GreenKeys!
My name is Lillith, aka Infinidoge. I am a university student from
Georgia studying Computer Science at Purdue University in Indiana. Most
of my time is spent programming or tinkering with Linux, specifically
NixOS. I look forward to seeing the cool stuff you all do here :)
I've always been fascinated with typewriters and teletype machines, but
only recently have I realized I can apply my free will to look into
acquiring one. If anyone has a Model 43 KSR that needs a good home, I'd
be happy to take it off your hands. If you're within a few hours drive
of West Lafayette, Indiana, or Atlanta, Georgia, I can likely figure out
picking it up directly. That said, I will admit my limits. Most of my
time is spent on university work, so I don't think I could put in the
effort of a full restoration. With some help from the manuals and you
lovely people, I could do some repairs though. I have my eye on the
Model 43 specifically, as it being ASCII and supporting RS232C would
make it much easier for me to work with, particularly as I don't have
much experience with teletype at the moment.
The Model 33 also has my eye, however right now I don't think I have
anywhere I could reasonably store it, so that will be a quest for
another time.
If you have any leads on an M43, let me know, and I hope you have a nice
day!
