No one came up with the correct answer, so I keep my prize.Sorry. I'll open a piccolo instead, for me. Hah! I didn't realize how isolated and provincial beside being ethnically and culturally challenged we are. The hint was that I needed another 11 now 12 more Schwinn lever setting tools to meet requests, and where was my Polish typewriter. Chicago has/had the distinction of having the largest Polish population outside of Warsaw. I can remember not far from the Biograph Theater where Al Dillinger got ventillated was part of the Polish neighborhood /section of town(Chicago). When I was a kid you could still see the bullet holes in the phone pole outside the movie! There were help wanted signs in Polish and English on lots of buildings.This was while we still had a vibrant production and factory capability in our country, before we started selling our birthright to foreign countries. They were asking for PUNCH PRESS OPERATORS. in P&E. Lots of Polish factory workers. So the Polish typewriter is the punch press. That's so I could have banged out another dozen to sell.to our CR listmembers. Too many customers, not enough 74180's. I could go into more ethnic anecdotes among all of our nationalities, but that's for another time. Chicago is a fun town. Ted Ernst Palos Verdes Estates, CA
