Finally found some fitting caps for my BRK OUT: Vintage Triumph Adler harvested from a Gabriele 9009 typewriter.
That looks 👌
Actually the whole machine is giving me a geek-gasm
Where’s the E?
What, and they just fit?!
Edit: It looks great!
pretty much, yea! The Gabriele used cherry MY switches iirc, and the stems are very similar :)
Aha, interesting! This opens up an entirely new category of things to look for in thrift stores, for me. It hadn’t occurred to me that electrical typewriters would be of relevance! Thanks for the learning!

My god, that looks incredible
Thank you! :) Hoping to get a case printed in retro beige for the full old school look…
That sounds so rad! I’d love to see it again when you have a beige version :)
