From “this bit is broken” to the right request

Original Olivetti Studio 44 Carriage Return Lever

“I need a lever for my Studio 44.”

Photograph the whole carriage and the attachment point. The return lever and its core are separate listings, currently €45 each. Tell us whether you need the lever, the core, or both; a Studio 45 lever is a different listing. View the separate core

See related listing
Hermes Baby/ Hermes Rocket Right Platen Knob

“My Hermes Baby has a broken knob.”

Tell us left or right as seen while typing. Send the old knob, shaft fitting and fixing screw in clear photographs, with measurements if possible. Body generation and fitting can differ.

See related listing
Olympia SM3 Left and Right Spool Shaft, Typewriter Spare Parts

“The ribbon spools on my SM3 will not turn.”

A ribbon problem does not automatically mean a broken shaft. Send a short video showing both sides. We can discuss diagnosis before you order the listed left/right shaft assemblies.

See related listing
Custom 3D-Printed Typewriter Parts

“My rare machine is missing a handle.”

Send the make, model, surviving fragments and mounting dimensions. We will assess an original replacement or a suitable custom design, then confirm feasibility and the quotation.

Five simple steps

How your request moves forward

  1. Show us the machine: brand, model, photos and a description of what is missing or wrong.
  2. We identify the route: a listed part, an assessment, custom reproduction or workshop repair.
  3. Confirm the details: fitting, condition, included screws, price, preparation time and shipping.
  4. Approve and order: pay for the agreed part or service once the scope is clear.
  5. Fit it with the right help: arrange online support or workshop installation where needed.

Tell Ania & Jacek what you need

Request a typewriter part

You do not need the technical name. Describe what the part does, or say “not sure”. Fields marked * are required.

Photos make the difference: send a front/top view, a close-up of the missing or broken part, and its mounting point. Include a ruler for scale where useful. Add a photo/video link below, or send attachments by WhatsApp or email with the same name and model.

Before you order

Frequently asked questions

I do not know the brand or part name. Can I still ask?

Yes. Enter “not sure” and send clear photographs of the front, top and affected area. Describe what happens when you use the machine.

Will a part from the same brand fit?

Not necessarily. Model, generation, carriage size, side, shaft and fixing points can differ. A similar-looking part is not enough to confirm compatibility.

Are original parts new?

Usually they are vintage components recovered from donor machines. Read the listing for condition and included pieces. Photographed typewriters are not included in a spare-part purchase.

Is the €25 assessment the full price of the part?

No. Brand and custom-design listings use an initial assessment fee. The applicable listing explains how that payment is credited against the final order. Wait for the final quotation.

What if the part cannot be found or reproduced?

Feasibility and stock vary. The rare-parts service has its own credit conditions, while brand and custom services have separate terms. Read the selected service listing and ask us to clarify before paying.

Can every part be 3D printed?

No. We need to assess material, strength, wear, dimensions and fitting. Some parts need an original component or another manufacturing method.

How long will it take?

A listed component, a donor-part search and a custom design have different preparation times. We confirm timing for your request; custom design and printing may take longer than a stocked part.

Can you install the part?

Ask for workshop installation, or book a 30-minute online session for a suitable repair. Parts, delivery and labour are separate unless explicitly included.

Can you send parts abroad?

We arrange shipping according to the part and destination. Send your country and postcode for the delivery quotation; any import charges depend on your destination.

Should I dismantle the typewriter to take photos?

Start with accessible views. Avoid forcing controls or taking apart spring-loaded mechanisms. If the required area is difficult to reach, ask us for guidance first.

One photo can be a good beginning.

Show us your machine and the part you need. We will help you choose the next step.

Hace poco conocí a Jacek y Ania para que me ayudaran a poner a punto mi máquina de escribir Olivetti Studio46. Me recibieron en su oficina-taller con mucho naturalidad y sobre todo compartiendo conmigo su simpatía, amabilidad, pasión y amor por su oficio. Y por supuesto consigueron un resultado espectacular con mi máquina, la cual cuidaré y utilizaré con mucha ilusión cada vez que escriba. Además, pronto empezarán con un curso de mecanografía, a cual, si mi trabajo me lo Permite, asistiré para sacarle e
Mayor rendimiento a mi “Oli” Mil gracias de nuevo, y a todos aquellos que tengáis una máquina de escribir que necesite de mantenimiento o reparación, no dudéis en contactar con ellos! Un abrazo fuerte!

This company is absolutely fantastic the work is very professional polished can't ask for better service love this company

Comunicação ótima com a equipa da El Granero, quer na escolha da máquina quer no seu envio. Tive um atraso na sua entrega dado que queria a minha máquina para escrever os votos de casamento. Felizmente, ainda chegou a tempo. Estou deliciada. Muito bem acondicionada.

Order lost in shipping between Spanish shipper and USPS in states.
El Granero is staying in contact and working diligently on their end to try to locate the package and resolve the matter.
The extra effort they are expending to ensure this relatively small purchase gets found and delivered is greatly appreciated and speaks volumes about the integrity of this small, family owned business.

Excellent service. I ordered typewriter ribbons for my Hermes Baby and they arrived in the mail within days.

He tenido problemas con mi máquina Olivetti Collegue y, la verdad, que encontrar a esta gente ha sido toda una suerte. Muy formales en cuanto a los tiempos de recogida y entrega, muy atentos en el trato y muy cuidadosos en el embalaje. La máquina ha regresado nueva, y además me han hecho algún obsequio! Muchas gracias por todo.

El Granero provided me with an exceptional level of service, attention to detail, and authentic communication. I purchased the Olympia typewriter from a friend and noticed the "a" key was not working properly. When I attempted to make the adjustment myself, the arm broke off, which began my journey of research to find a professional restoration service. Coming across El Granero, I noticed they had a 50 euro option to repair the typewriter (with shipment to-and-from their location in Spain). The process was not as difficult as I had anticipated, and the owners provided updates, videos, and demos of the fixes they made to my typewriter. I am truly grateful that they were able to not only fix the "a" key, but fully tune and restore my typewriter to its former glory. Thank you, thank you, thank you, I am now creating performance pieces with confidence, and writing with great pleasure.

Son encantadores, unos profesionales como la copa de un pino. Trabajo rápido e impecable. Repetiré sin dudarlo.
Tuvimos la gran suerte de conocerlos en persona, a ellos y a sus mascotas.
Experiencia de 10.
Maquina repasada, limpia, engrasada y en perfecto estado.
La maquina tiene mucho valor sentimental, por eso ocupa el mejor sitio de casa.

Total confianza, muy profesionales y amables, tienen unas piezas muy exclusivas y cuidadas. Totalmente recomendables!

Excelente en todos los sentidos. Amabilidad y compromiso. Muchas gracias por todo.

Ania and Jacek were so helpful and made this purchase as easy as can be. My typewriter was packed incredibly well and arrived safely and is a real beauty. I'm thankful I don't live near their shop, otherwise I'd probably be buying more of their beautifully restored machines. :-)

A beautiful accessory for your typewriter. Quality craftsmanship that perfectly matches the spirit of a 'vintage' object. Highly recommended!

Absolutely beautiful Typewiter, restored to perfection, all wrapped with great love and care. It was a present for my husband’s 50th birthday and it couldn’t have been any more perfect. Thank you Ania and Jacek!

In 2021 I had bought a beautiful Olympia Traveler de Luxe...it looked like new. Between moving from one country to another and place to place I was finally able to bring it with me. I lost the manual and was stuck. I was scared so I contacted them quickly via Instagram. Not even 2 minutes passed and I was resolving the mess I had. They sent me the manual and wow it was working again. They even sent me photos with drawings so I could understand since I am new to this world of clippers. Super happy, and now let's write!

Thank you, Sarah, for sharing your wonderful experience! We're thrilled to hear that your Olympia Traveler de Luxe made the journey with you and is back to working like new. It was our pleasure to assist you quickly and provide the manual and helpful drawings. We're glad to have made the process easier for you as you dive into the world of typewriters. Happy writing!

El Granero does a fine job. I once had two rare typewriters of the same make and model. Both had problems. However, they were able to fashion one working and complete Groma Kolibri typewriter to me. I was on holiday in southern Spain shortly after the work was complete. he went out of his way to deliver the machine to our hotel. superb service everytime I have worked with El Granero typewriter.company.

I am very pleased with the typewriter I ordered. The restoration is great and I’m very much looking forward to writing with it.

Ha sido fantástico: me dejaron en un estado fenomenal una máquina antigua que no había quien diese algo por ella. 100 por 100 recomendables

I'm so happy with the service experience provided by Ania and Jacek. I am also thrilled with my typewriter, which arrived in perfect condition. Despite placing my order on New Year’s Eve, they were open and promptly responded to my emails, offering suggestions and helping me find what was best for me. I was looking for a typewriter with a Danish keyboard and they were the only ones I found in Europe that could accommodate my needs. I was amazed by their effort to accommodate my needs. It was a perfect service experience. I will definitely recommend them to anyone looking to buy a typewriter. They are true professionals.

No tengo palabras para describir lo que sentí al recibir la máquina de escribir. Fue indescriptible. Está super bien restaurada y funciona a la perfección. Es una de esas cosas que no pasan desapercibidas por la vida de uno y que tienen un valor que va más allá del material. Gracias por hacerlo posible.

I couldn’t be happier with my shopping experience with El Granero! To no fault of their own, the first typewriter I purchased was lost in the mail, but El Granero was quick to help me out. They found a replacement that fit all of my needs and were able to refurbish it and send it to me before a deadline that I had.

During every step of the process they were there to answer my questions and to make sure I felt great about my purchase. I definitely felt supported by them.

I’ve already begun using the typewriter I purchased to write personal letters to friends and family and it couldn’t be more perfect. It’s been professionally serviced and works flawlessly! Thank you for the great typewriter; it’s already one of my favorite things I own.

Beautiful little black Olympia typewriter. Eager to start using it. Thanks for the excellent service. A big thank you to the team for providing such outstanding El Granero service. Your efforts haven't gone unnoticed. Best!
