this cabinet holds standing type while it's "tied up in a form", i.e. in active use

tabletop

human-powered, makes metallic clapping noise
needs at least front & side to use, ideally more for oiling, maintenance etc
C&P
"chandler & price"
big version of the tabletop
runs on a flywheel / tredle - foot powered
32" x 50"
this is the thing in the bar upstairs right now (coming down tomorrow)
type cabinets
