Deckel advice

[RobCParticipant @robc77385]

Hi Folks,

Do any of you have any advice for someone looking for a Deckel FP1 in the UK?

I am struggling to find anything sensible in the UK, although there are a great deal of machines in mainland Europe, covering a huge range of prices.

At this stage, I am looking for a helping hand on working out what is worth looking for and then what an appropriate market value would be.

Cheers,

Rob

Have you considered an Alexander Master Tool maker?

I've got one ( thanks to the late Gerry Proctor for the guidance- god rest him) and they're a Deckel clone. Well built and very versatile.

See the lathes uk site for details of build , capacity etc.

Good luck- Ian

and if you come accross a slotting head let me know!
