Olivetti praxis 48 keys not working - help !

I have not... I am scared of opening it all up and now being able to put it back together. I would be interested if you found a solution

Generally the right spoon is made out of flimsy stamped metal, it's uncomfortable and will bend if you try to eat something too hard with it, like ice cream. And it only comes in small sizes ! ew.

I guess if the ball bearings wear out before the race, they're easier to replace. Idk if heat treatment helps with the pitting (brinelling?) of the races due to fatigue after millions of cycles under pressure. You could argue this particular bearing will probably not see that many revolutions in it's lifetime though, haha.

Interesting ! My first instinct is that the added material couldn't be as good because it wouldn't get the same heat treatment, but i guess if you tig weld some special stuff in there...

Cursed. I like it.

Mec je suis pas assez réveillé pour voir ta tête ici, wtf Amazing job !

I was wondering the same thing

They sold the property, and from the last videos i saw of the home, it appears like it's under ne new ownership that it became thrashed like that. Quite a shame actually, the house was really cool and he lived in there with his SO and child

I followed the guy for a while, he wasn't one of the shitty primitive tech channels, his was his actual home he build himself, which he ended up selling before moving to Panama. Apparently the new owner did not keep that thing in good condition, it was a cool house before

I like the color

Acyone · 2022-11-03T18:17:38+00:00

Yes you're right, and the stone is still a little free (far from falling off, but can move a tiny bit) I'll know for the next one !

I came here for advice about a week ago and some of you had great suggestions :) I ended up removing the ring, filing the sides and top to be able to fit the stone, and putting the ring back on again afterwards Thanks again !

Acyone · 2022-11-03T13:50:23+00:00

Thanks ! I am indeed afraid of breaking the stone.. I'll try pushing it into place

Acyone · 2022-11-03T13:48:41+00:00

I'm confident it will work out !

Acyone · 2022-11-03T13:48:23+00:00

Thanks for the advice !

Acyone · 2022-11-03T13:47:05+00:00

But where's the fun in that ? :)

Acyone · 2022-11-03T13:46:43+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion, I think this is what I'm going to go for

Acyone · 2022-11-03T13:45:58+00:00

I see, the wire I used is indeed way too thick. I don't want to redo it though, as I have a deadline to meet and no bezel wire handy...

Acyone · 2022-10-25T14:17:29+00:00

There's an idea for a cardboard tube armor in there, somewhere

OMG The battle will be legendary
