[GreenKeys] 300wpm M28 printer

[Nick England]

Well not quite, actually three 100 wpm printers in the same cabinet.
Thanks to friendly advice and some parts from folks here, I got 3 typing
units going and began completing the restoration of my M28 waterfall
printer last week. I finally turned it all on this evening....

Here's a short video showing it in operation.

It is a bit of a hodge-podge as I am not sure what typing units were in it
originally. I have 1 sprocket feed, 1 friction feed, and 1 friction feed
with display rack and paper winder. I'm just running straight to the
selector magnets and have bypassed the LESU because I'm not sure how it was
hooked up or what all the functions are. Maybe some day I'll turn up a
wiring diagram of the system, but it is plenty usable now.

Still photos showing some stages of the restoration are at
