Looking for an older style vintage typewriter that I can still get ribbon for, want to use it fir a project. Preferably one of those ones that smashed into the paper leaving an indent.
Any ideas? I know about antique stores etc. Wondering if there are any dealers out there. – at Valley View, PA
Anyone who knows me realizes I might not be the best measuring standard available, however, this is a decent sized knee wall void space.
Take the time to get ‘in to’ your work.

It’s a lot of info in a day, but a critical component to well rounded FF’s.
When someone yells at me & says that what we’re doing at fires is wrong based only on how they do it, they lose credibility w/ me.
There are tactics that I strongly advocate for, but if they don’t work for your town, that’s not wrong, it’s you doing what’s best for your town. – at Pennsylvania, USA
Often we see people preach, “you do you” only to turn around & say, “ no THIS is the right way to do that, not the way you do it.”
We can all advocate strongly in our towns for what’s right for us based on our staffing, resources & district. Let others do what’s right for them. – at Pennsylvania, USA
Trysten Fellers Scholarship gofund.me/e2e84082 In a day where we’ve gotten a bit off course, some people continue to do the right things. Trysten was one of those people. He was senselessly killed while trying to make sure someone got home safe.
One department looks at an all electric engine & suddenly the rest of the American Fire Service are experts on the downside of electric vehicles.
Predictable & hilarious.
If the fire service was an industry our products would be shame, judgement & contempt!
We can do better! – at Valley View, PA
