Hi Everyone,
I've just joined the Forum, and am quite excited because I'm in the process of purchasing a Deckel FP2 Gen3 (I think...). I will be visiting two sellers this week (traveling about 1000km in the process...) looking at their serial number 2002 (manufactured in 1981, I believe) machines, and will hopefully be bringing one home with me .
I currently use a small Chinese made Mill/Drill machine, and really look forward to being able to do some serious milling with my "new" first proper mill. Not knowing this machine at all, I have spent quite a few hours on the internet, and especially on this site, reading everything that I can find regarding the Deckel. One thing that I did discover was an absolute lack of information about the "square" Gen 3 FP2's - and I could not find even one operators manual.
I would thus really appreciate it if someone could send me a copy of such a manual - please send me a PM with your details, and I will send my email address in return.
To all the Deckel "Old Hands": thanks in advance for being here for us Newbies
Regards
HennieL
