We took a Model 14 to TwilioCon, an event for developers who use
the Twilio SMS to web gateway. We use Twilio's service to send
SMS to our Teletype machines for steampunk events.

Both machines are now working well. Both needed complete
rewiring; the original fabric-covered 1920s wire insulation
was hopeless. They were also cleaned, repainted, and one
motor replaced. Now I just have to replace the celluloid covers
on the keytops of one of them so they're readable.
Anyone have one of those little metal boxes that's at the left
of a Model 14 keyboard, with the BREAK button and on/off switch?
I need one of those.
