Hello, I have just dived into the hobby of typewriters. I came this way from collecting and using fountain pens. While I've found that I really enjoy using my pens for writing out RPG ideas and taking reading notes I find that my hands still get quite fatigued when writing more than a few pages at a time.
I wanted to organize my unread books so I went to see if a local furniture shop had some modestly priced bookshelves (Spoiler, they did not. In fact, they charge Ikea prices for Ikea items that are used. If I wanted to get Ikea stuff for that prices I could go to Ikea on my way back home from work.) What did surprise me was the blue Smith-Corona that was working next to the store's front door. I INSTANTLY feel in love, and an hour later I knew that I wanted a typewriter.
Thankfully, I am near a city so I was able to find a typewriter shop. Two weeks later after some back and forth calls I was able to my very own used and serviced Smith-Corona Galaxie Twelve.
