I ran across an old and very nice portable Smith Corona typewriter the other day and of course I opened it up and gave it the required typewriter inspection: holding down tab until the carriage rings the bell. What a delight.
This project is really great, but I cant help but want to remix it to hide the guts within the bell! I also kinda want to hook it up to a pinball knocker and put it under my coworkers' desks.
Anyone else have the unending list of cool projects to build that you can never seem to start?
The teletype/typewriter is one of mine. Ideally it'd be a Selectric (https://github.com/rbanffy/selectric-mode), but an electronic one would probably be an easier task.
Also much cheaper. Shipping to Ireland is horrendously expensive.
