Usagi Electric | The Bendix G15 Typewriter is Crazy Pants! @UsagiElectric | Uploaded March 2024 | Updated October 2024, 16 hours ago.
As we barrel towards DC full speed ahead, there’s one last large hurdle we have to overcome – the typewriter. This thing is insane on multiple levels. Sure, it weighs about 70 lbs. and some crazy fool slapped a 28” platen on it, but also, it’s been heavily modified by Bendix to send the weirdest collection of data-bits and signals back and forth with the computer. Come on along as we dive down the weird and wonderful rabbit hole of the G15 Typewriter!
