Linux on a 70's Typewriter | IBM Selectric II → Teletype Conversion
I found a IBM Selectric II typewriter in the trash (yes, really) and decided to convert it to connect to a computer. Managed to take a whole bunch of pictures and short videos, so I had to make a full video about it. It's not quite the same as an IO Selectric or IBM 2741 but you're probably not going to find one of those in the trash these days. http://alnwlsn.com My first attempt from a few months back: • Solenoid'd IBM Selectric II typing test Link to 3D files and firmware: https://github.com/alnwlsn/videos/tre...
