I'm sorting out this typewriter, first one I've owned. It came screwed onto a plywood board -- am I right that this is perhaps the way it came? I have seen pictures of Woodstocks mounted on a board, presumably to work with a cover (I've seen pictures of that too). So while I may leave it on the board for the time being, I may decide to remove the board and install new feet. Does anyone know offhand what the pitch of the threading for the screrws for the feet might be? I can take one of the screws to a hardware store but thought I'd ask.

Second question -- the paper table (the plate with the Woodstock logo) doesn't seem to be held in place. I see two small studs on the back, which appear to have beveled edges. I'm wondering whether they are meant to clip over the bottom of the bar that hold the margin index, or if they're supposed to be held in tension against that bar by means of springs hooking over each stud. Or is the table just supposed to rest against the bar? Looking over the Ames guide, I don't find anything that clarifies this.

Thanks.
