It's another major achivement, considering its brick origin. Only those who have tried to do something similar can truly appreciate it. How about to make a bold or Italic version? 10/10
I have altered the Y, H, and L and hopefully they look more balanced. The numbers are my first foray into 'Old Style' ... hence the lower tail on the 3.
If you can give me any assistance with the x and z I would be extremely grateful. I have widened the x a tad, but even that means that the diagonals become offset, so I am at a loss to know how else to improve them.
I believe typewriters where set to mono space. Are you going to tweak it around there? Also a 45° line might help you with the x and z dilemma, specially if you are trying to go mono space.
Well, at least in my theory.
Thanks also to cayo and tag.
@cayo: I did try mono spacing, but couldn't get it to look right - perhaps this is something to look at later. I also looked at 45 degree angles for the x and z ... but that just made them too wide. Hey ho, perhaps one day that elusive third angle will appear.
Currently working on a bold(er) version as suggested by Frodo.
I am making a cook book with the school's chefs : )
thank you for this one - was exactly what I was looking for!

As you can see from the date that this font was released, this font was created before we were able to use composites to create more angles. glyphs with diagonals especially show up the limitations of FontStruct in the early days.
Since those days I have created a family (RM True to Type) which is sold through MyFonts and Fonts.com.
