[GreenKeys] Two Mite teletypewriters available on ebay

[Buzz]

I bought a very nice TGC-14 (as is) off ePay for $50 + and when I got it of
course it didn't work.  I found that the oil had hardened and parts were like
glued together, especially the function levers.  I had to soak them a few days
in lacquer thinner to get the pieces apart.  Some parts I had to scrape the
dried oil off with a sharp razor knife.  So these "as is" things can be a big
headache if they've set a long time.
During reassembly I lubed everything with "Mobil 1" and after a few adjustments
the machine worked fine.
