| I scrubbed the top, but not the body. Can you see enough difference to be worth scrubbing the rest? |

Love the way they write "DeLuxe."
ReplyDeleteI think the body looks a smidge yellower than the top, but I'm not sure. Might as well clean it all!
I would bet the case is aluminum.
Curves! The case looks very similar to the fiberglass hard case I have for Imperial Good Companion 5 0 right down to the colour.
ReplyDeleteMy Everest looks identical except for the typeface. Yours works properly, and that is a big plus. The shell is indeed cast aluminum.
ReplyDeleteThe key tops look almost like Hermes and the curves reminds me of the old Hermes 3000. Nice typeface.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on the K2! It looks beautiful and seems to type very nicely too. I think I missed the origin story on this one? This is the same model I found in the trash last year, except that was a very nice red - a French keyboard ruined the fun for me and I passed it on to Georg :(
ReplyDeleteNevertheless, I remember it as being quite pleasant to type on.
Scrubbing is always justified, IMHO. I'm no germaphobe, but removing a layer of someone else's grime and bodily sheddings just seems sensible to me.
