[Md-sligo] I'm back! plus question about brailler repair services?

[Henry Osborne]

Hi Everyone, I do believe that Judy took Terrys Brailler to a place in 
either Baltimore or Silver Springs last year.
I also recall a couple of places called the Selective Brailler, and the 
Braille Doctor that I saw advertised in the Monitor. My last thought is to 
Google around to see if you can find one.
Hope this all helps.

Unfortunately, no one is repairing braillers locally.  One of my coworkers
is taking the course at Perkins, but I don't know how much extra business
she wants to take on.

Hi all,
As some of you may recall, I moved to the DC area last summer and came to a
Sligo Creek chapter meeting. I enjoyed the chapter and meeting all of you,
but decided to join the Potomac chapter since it was a bit closer to my
apartment. However, my husband and I just moved from the District to
downtown Silver Spring. So, I am planning to join the Sligo Creek chapter
again and start coming regularly to meetings beginning in July. I also think
I'm on the same flight to national convention as the group of you who are
traveling together, so it will be nice to get to know you guys a bit better.
I'm also writing with a question about repair options for a Perkins
brailler. I bought a refurbished one from the Braille Superstore about three
years ago, and when we moved from Seattle to D.C. last year, we had it
shipped by FedEx. However, something must have happened to it during
shipping, because now the paper feed doesn't open all the way, and the
carriage is getting stuck. I'm not sure what the problem is.
My husband is normally pretty handy, but he couldn't figure out how to fix
it either. Do any of you do repairs for Perkins braillers or know of a place
I could send it? I don't use it that often, but even refurbished it was
expensive, so I don't want to just throw it out without trying to fix it.
Thanks, Arielle
