Description:
This was an easy service with the ribbon drive belt being the only issue. I used a 2 1/2 in O ring (link). The original V-belts are ok, so I am living with a little bit of hop in the motor belt. This is just a darn tootin fun typewriter. Maybe one of the ribbon suppliers can do a custom 4 color like the original? Is there a typewriter with more options than this?

Typewriters are the perfect blend of using one's technical skills, history and functional purpose. My goal is type tested machines. My interests are not isolated to any one area. For example, I am a big fan of Smith Corona electrics, mid century electrics and all things Royal.
RESEARCH NOTE: When researching the Sears Medalist Power 12 on a computer with lots of screen real estate, you may find that launching the Sears Serial Number page and the Sears Medalist Power 12 By Model/Year/Serial page in new browser windows can give you interesting perspectives on changes throughout the model series.
