    EMO

    I did not take pictures at all. Did take some brochures. One was for this machine: http://richyoung.com.tw/productview.aspx?pdid=1212 It actually looked better in real life. Usable in manual and CNC. They showed the version with the enclosure like on an FPNC machine. The PMU50CNC is sized like...

    EMO

    https://eu.jingdiao.com/about-us/research-development/cnc-system Quote from this page: "JD50 CNC system is based on PC-Based structure, uses inserted-type IPC (industrial personal computer) and Windows XP Embedded operation system platform, and adopts En3D as CNC software. This is most suitable...

    EMO

    17. Saw Titan Gilroy muscle his way through a hallway with his entourage all dressed in black and displaying "CNC expert" and "Texas". He is so good and so bad at the same time, he gives me cognitive dissonance.

    EMO

    TLDR - Martin wandered EMO, didn't understand much and now rants about it. So I wandered EMO, its been like 10 years (?) since the last time. To me small vendors are the most interesting and I imagine they were not there so much this time. I understand it to be extremely expensive to be...

    Do your Albrecht keyless chucks fully close?

    They make many different sizes and versions. Some go to zero, some don't. Some only go to 0.2mm, which only looks like zero. Just look into the catalogs. There is no "yes or no" answer.

    Looking for a Deckel FP1 Horizontal Arbor

    Do you mean the arbor or the arbor support? For a 65 machine you probably need MT4 size. Since I sold my older FP1 I have long and short arbors for sale. Metric only.

    Looking for a Deckel FP1 Horizontal Arbor

    Customs refused it? Are those damn Luxies on some kind of blockade list. They should be.

    For Sale ! ! !

    Deckel Micro Boring attachment with Albrecht chuck 0-1.5 Selling this attachment, looks almost new. S20x2 thread for manual Deckel of course. Missing one tiny 4mm thumbscrew (NOT broken off). I assume for FP1 quill, but I still need to check. Looks like it is for about 65mm quill. For shipping...

    One for the boneyard

    I would be tempted by the 4th axis of the S. That in itself must have been expensive.

    One for the boneyard

    Yes, they are starting over again. Imagine how slack these outfits are. They did not take the pictures, have never seen the machines or been on site. They do not guarantee anything or have any liability. All they do is put the pictures on their site and let the time run down and charge 18%. Even...

    One for the boneyard

    Obviously I have no earthly idea, but just buy the whole machine. I'd wait until it is no longer under contract with the twerps at Surplex. https://www.surplex.com/de/m/chiron-fz-12-s-magnum-vertikal-bearbeitungszentrum-844311.html...

    Who in the US just bought an FP2 spiral milling attachment from me?

    I had advertised such an item here in Germany (in excellent condition and complete). I got contacted by a guy not far from me, saying he wanted to buy it, Russian accent but very good in German and living not far from me. So he comes by and we load it (it takes 2) and he mentions he is buying it...

    Second Deckel FP4MK I ever had also comes from the UK

    Yes, but they buy new only. It would take a rare fiscal initiative to buy excellent use over good new. Those admin guys don't have it in them. So they will normally buy new DMG FP4M and FPS.

    Second Deckel FP4MK I ever had also comes from the UK

    The lamp placement in the video is worth a do-over. But nice machine.

    Second Deckel FP4MK I ever had also comes from the UK

    Not me, but all you people are too poor for me to get ahead by association. I need to find a guy that will let me manage his 2 Billion, like that other guy. I guess that won't happen in this forum.

    One for the boneyard

    To partially answer my own question: The machines remain on contract with the auctioneer for another 3 months, I guess in theory to put a deal together, but in reality to probably do nothing. Let's see, I am watching this one.

    Second Deckel FP4MK I ever had also comes from the UK

    I am mingling with the wrong people.

    Second Deckel FP4MK I ever had also comes from the UK

    Considering what these things go for, I wonder who is the typical customer? I mean this is not the same crowd as a 5000€ FP1 or 2.

    One for the boneyard

    Yesterday was the auction for the machines shown above with the title "aviary". The auction pictures were much nicer, having been taken in the factory in situ. The results were: FP4AT Contour 3, min bid 2000€ = no bids FP4ATC Contour 3, min bid 3000€ = no bids FP3ATC Contour 3, min bid 2500€ =...
