    I am a
    factory-trained technician with more than five decades of experience
    . All my machines include the tear down and reassembly of each machine which is meticulously cleaned, with full lubrication and reassembled to manufacturer specifications.
    You can expect prices to continue to rise for the foreseeable future on professionally refurbished machines because of the scarcity of local, factory-trained typewriter repairmen and the machines themselves. Logically, professionally refurbished typewriters will be the better investment long term.
    Check out the representative photos of the 6 hour process mechanical refurbishment process including the tear down and reassembly of each machine, a full cleaning and full lubrication and then reassembly to manufacturer specs.
    FLAT RATE SHIPPING via FedEx ground (continental USA only) EXPERTLY PACKED in a sturdy shipping container that protects both the carrying case but also the precision machine inside.   Check out my feedback and see what the repeat buyers are saying about my refurbished typewriters.
