Restoring a Model 28 ASR Teletype
punch tape reperforator
Beautiful typing units x2
The original vintage felt insulation
Rubbed down to bare metal, sprayed with Rustoeleum primer. Removed seeds and bugs from power supply.
Cleaned up typing reperforator base - removed ancient chads
Primer (rustoleum) on chassis and door
Next up: gotta clean that keyboard!
A marginally cleaner keyboard assembly (thank you Armor-All)
Cranking the motor by hand
Repurposed yoga mat
... with superglued felt blanket on top
Disassembled keyboard ready to clean and lube
I was warned it was fun reassembling, and ..... it was!
Installing keyboard and printer unit .. everything just drops into place
Plugging in x3 block connectors to the printer and kb assemblies
plugging in a 2-pin connector and a ground straps
Powering up for the first time: seems to be be running in open?
