Nice looking machine! How much?
What was the machine purchased for? Anything specific?

Suspect you're concerned with comments like WHAT ?? Hell, you have bought two_____(fill in the blank)____________ for that kind of money !More expensive than I care to admit.
Of course there are questions:
I would be somewhat skeptical of a "minimum" lubrication scheme for the ways, knowing what i see on originals machines having problems with
the vertical ways....
Way oil is relatively cheap, wondering why you thought this change was needed?

drcoelho is doing a service. I can go to my wife and say, "Dearie, $4k for that [whatever used machine I want to buy] ain't nuthin'. Check out this guy."As someone who has spent too much money on fun, I'd say congrats and enjoy! It's worth every penny.

Nice looking machine, perhaps its the lighting but does not appear very shiny in the snaps.
Any comment?
I know that they (FPS) retained the 14 1/2 * pressure angle gearing for the spindle drive.
Wondering if they retained the original Deckel designed needle roller bearing spindles.
Can you tell us the top spindle speed?
Is that machine setup to run "Aktive" on all three axis?
Are the vertical "Box" ways hardened like the later FP-NC's?

Nice looking machine. Hope to see it in person when it is all settled in.
Thanks for sharing.....Love to get a sense of how quiet she runs in top gear.
Cheers Ross
I would suspect that MQL is not related to the way lube but for the cutting tool coolant. MQL would be more practical on an open machine such as this.
