Opening the box...

 

 

*Sigh* I wish that I could just get 1 machine in the mail that didn't need repair! 

See the rather crucial saw piece hanging down? It's supposed to be straight across the typewriter.

 

 My SG1, stepping in when my computer fails.

I really want to get this machine working. I have wanted a push-rod Alder for some time, and this machine seems to fit the Art Deco direction of my collection. Which typewriter gods do I need to make a sacrifice to, to get this machine working again?
