Today it wasn't super cold so I sat on the front porch and cut them all off.  I had a layer of metal dust all over me, lost a few layers of skin on one finger, but the result was worth it.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPHtVSp15FWX53hjxZtivhV689R2MBClniATTyMHif1ENlvC80tGl_mggDRsqIPZej0zwkGH84RXycD2xarHVD-72IdUgmeaQDVoW0PkqeclmffxQg1zq8l-VK7EhaB9204wSYwdKpDdM/s1600/vintage+typewriter+keys+1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgPHtVSp15FWX53hjxZtivhV689R2MBClniATTyMHif1ENlvC80tGl_mggDRsqIPZej0zwkGH84RXycD2xarHVD-72IdUgmeaQDVoW0PkqeclmffxQg1zq8l-VK7EhaB9204wSYwdKpDdM/s320/vintage+typewriter+keys+1.jpg" width="214" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLwmnrzzgP8QJkk6BmCQaMuzAnvi36cNPHMnZ_AQD6xCNefwAuJUJ2qNdwyBDAHBGWG0I2EV6aOzK51DOYzlh75wRmNZ_Qciy7v4k0EyqqM2kZGx0aC5YQVncMJK3mq2E4r2Ye2OWhGYA/s1600/vintage+typewriter+keys+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="214" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhLwmnrzzgP8QJkk6BmCQaMuzAnvi36cNPHMnZ_AQD6xCNefwAuJUJ2qNdwyBDAHBGWG0I2EV6aOzK51DOYzlh75wRmNZ_Qciy7v4k0EyqqM2kZGx0aC5YQVncMJK3mq2E4r2Ye2OWhGYA/s320/vintage+typewriter+keys+2.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"> These are all the leftover "arms" from the keys.
