Space bar slightly loose on Underwood #5
This should be an easy fix. Heres the story:
Bought an Underwood standard 5. Had multiple things wron with it, so I brough it to Cambridge Typewriter in Cambridge MA (Did an excellent job by the way, You should stop by. They fixed for a great price). Anyways, the space bar was loose before I even broguht it there. So I got it back, and the space bar is still loose. Is this a common problem on these, or is it normal? When ever I hit it, It bounces up and down a few times, and settles.
Back from a long break.

Re: Space bar slightly loose on Underwood #5
Can you elaborate a little on this? Do you mean the entire space bar mechanism feels loose, or just the actual space bar where it mounts to its linkage?
