Typing outside on a 1960 Olympia SG-1 typewriter

I now present to you the monstrous 1960 Olympia SG-1 typewriter. This was the second typewriter I acquired, but the first one in working condition. I acquired it locally and though it looked dirty, it worked perfectly and still had some ink to spare other than some dry spots from sitting exposed in the office I picked it up from for decades. Pretty nice for the first typewriter I could actually type on. It was impressively fast, whereby I adapted fairly quickly to touch typing on these machines, partly thanks to my already having a fair bit of experience with piano technique. It also felt like I was typing on an MG 42 by merit of its loud and deeper mechanical noises. This is the fourth of five typewriter videos recorded outside during a day when I had to supervise my two poodles who had to stay outside due to the air duct cleaning technician being in the house; this one and the following was taken later in the after noon after the duct cleaner had already left. This was a month and some, whereby I didn't have a chance to edit these videos due to my being on a trip and having to work on a few new arrivals. 0:00 Introduction 0:50 Basket shift which I guess initially surprised me, but the carriages of time were pretty heavy 0:55 Shift lock 1:01 Though the Hermes Ambassador is larger in volume, the SG-1 weighs around 36 pounds while the Ambassador weighs only 32 pounds, closer to my wide carriage Smith-Corona "Eighty-Eight" Secretarial ("88"). My heaviest machine is the wide carriage Underwood Noiseless Standard which sits at around 44.5 pounds with its thick, all around metal shell mind its big noiseless action. 1:23 Margins 1:34 Paper release 1:37 Feeding paper 1:48 Line finder lever and line spacing dial 2:33 First characters typed. The force curve (force with respect to distance the key is pressed) of this typewriter's keys is perhaps closer to linear, but with the nonlinear inertial influence of having to accelerate all the metal parts, putting it between the "square root" "decreasingly increasing" feel of the Hermes ambassador or the "quadratic" "increasingly increasing" feel of the Smith-Corona 88. Giving it my "Liquid Wrench treatment" later on did make for a smoother feel and slightly quieten the mechanical sounds. 3:38 One is more likely on this machine than others to miss the registering of a spacebar if you press it too soon after or before the typing of a character. 4:32 **TYPING DEMO** 5:10 I also found it more likely to jam than my other post-war standards when typing fast. A tidbit is that though E and R are adjacent on the keyboard, they are actually four typebars apart, allowing them to be typed in succession very fast, at least with two fingers. 6:27 Typing resumes 6:40 Tabulator. By "regulator", I meant "governor" for regulating or governing the speed the carriage moves. 7:21 Typing resumes 7:49 Ribbon colour selector 8:05 "Carriage flicking" is reasonably feasible on this machine. 8:53 Typing resumes 9:28 At least I can outpace this particular machine 10:50 Margin release 10:53 Degree and "th" key 11:37 Up arrow or low caret probably for pointing to a word above 12:05 Upper left view 15:09 Right view. The "MG 42" mechanical noises can be better heard here. 15:42 This machine wasn't as susceptible to horizontal character alignment or escapement actuation issues caused by the table wobble. 16:27 Typing resumes 18:31 Closeup 20:05 Conclusion What you can expect to see on this channel: - Soon: Typewriter, switch, and keyboard collecting, Romantic Era piano performances (Chopin, Liszt, Schumann, Alkan etc.), "perfectionist" Lego builds and mods. - Within a year: Programming, computer architecture, model ship building, worldbuilding?, conlangs?, philosophy? - In the following years: Independent watchmaking, making a unique typewriters from scratch, "revolutionizing" the concert grand.
