It is older than me - yet in better shape!
Haha, I'm a bit older, but I'm a lot slimmer:D
I'm older than Stefan's Deckel and not so flexible 🥴😁.
congratulations! absolute jewel of a milling machine!
it's no schaublin, of course, but still. ;)
looking forward to seeing more of it!
No schaublin :( But it has a quill ;)
Thanks for dropping by!
You should try a Deckel Tony. FP2 or 3 😋 or... A quality TOS/Intos from Czechoslovakia 😁💪
@@StefanGotteswinter
LOL
Its not the size of the quill its how you use it.......6mm is about average im told
This Old Tony is how I found this channel. THANK YOU TOT!
The difference between an FP1 and a motorboat is there are only two days you’ll be happy with that motorboat….. the day you purchased it and the day you sold it. You’ll be happy with the FP1 virtually every day you have the pleasure to use it, AND it will never go down in value 👍👍😎👍👍
I'm so happy for you! also, adding the catalog photos of the accessories was a fantastic idea .
Thank you Adam!
It really was, wasn’t it. Also when I saw the tiny powerful machine I instantly thought of you, Adam 😊
I have a feeling that the manuals for that machine and all of its accessories would make a stack as tall as it is! But seriously it is a remarkable machine and I appreciate you taking the time to show us around.
The original accessories cabinet is like 2m wide, 1m tall and 800mm deep :D
@@StefanGotteswinterThat cabinet full would be dream of many people. Stefan, are you still keeping old drill/mill you have, as an drill press?
Slotting head + 3D printed Martini shaker = Friday night reward for a week of working
I had forgotten how much I loved the design of the Deckel mill. I ran them back in the 80's a bit. So much for such a small footprint. Ingenious!
The FP1 must be the most versatile machine ever made. 🥰 The “footprint to parts and cut size”-ratio is hard to beat. And top level precision on top of that. 👌
Really looking forward to see what clever setups you will show us in the future, taking benefit of the machines full potential.
I guess its also because space is really at a premium in urban Germany.
Welcome to "This Old Tool room" The beginning of it sounded familiar! Lol
What a beautiful machine. So smooth and quiet.
Wonderful walk-through of a splendid machine. Thanks so much for sharing!
Thank you for taking the time to do these videos. Very appreciated. Nice knowing that a machine of this accuracy and versatility is in the hands of an equally capable machinist who appreciates it and can use it to it's full potential.
What an incredible machine!!! Very happy for you, well done.
It's great to see a Deckel on youtube. I know how you must feel. I bought an imperial unit FP3 in 1992, and I love it. Can't wait to see what you do with it.
What a beautiful machine! I’m glad that it is in your shop! Also love the long form video. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for the adventure. Enjoyed!
Awesome Stefan! One more in your arsenal of machines!! Congratulations for your aquisition and progress!!
Thanks for the tour of your new (to you) piece of equipment. Amazing & very complicated engineering. Loved the longer video to understand this machine.
Congrats Stefan! It's a beautiful machine and it will certainly add a lot more versatility to your shop. Looking forward to see it in use in some upcoming projects. 👍👍
Thank you Stefan for inviting us for a visit to see your new mill.
Congrats and thank you very much for the very intensive introduction of this special machine. Back to the past!!
Thank you for a wonderfully clear explanation of the machine and your reasons for purchase. I look forward to seeing you put it through its paces.
I couldn’t wait for this video when I saw your images posted. And as always, you exceeded my expectations. Thank you.
WoW! Versatility is amazing. Looking forward to seeing projects.
I've been very much looking forward to this overview. Thank you Stefan, wonderfully done. I'm impressed by it all, but was surprised how quiet it is!
Nice. Thanks for the overview. A very versatile machine
As usual, Your videos are incredibly informational, a real treasure for somebody who wants to see what a toolroom mill is able to do. Congratulations for the well tooled machine!
Gratulation, Stefan. Das bringt ne Menge neuer Möglichkeiten in die Werkstatt. Klasse.
welp, that's pretty awesome. could definitely see going crazy with setups. it's almost to much fun getting a new machine and trying everything out. I really like the overarm support for the indexing head, way more versatile than a table mounted tailstock.
What a wonderfully versatile machine. It does not appear to have a large footprint for a smaller shop. Thank you for sharing.
Congratulations Stefan, to the beautiful machine! We had it in our apprentice workshop and it is an amazing toolroom milling machine. I loved working with it.
That is some serious piece of kit brother!
Love to see what you end up producing on it !
That was one of the more informing videos I've seen in a long time thank you for your effort
I owned one of these machine for a time and still I learned quite a lot from this video. Thank you! And congratulations!
I love the aspect ratio / proportions of this machine. It fits your shop very well and is incredibly versatile for its size.
The machine is a work of art. The colour of the lamp even coordinates with the machine!
Like a kid on Christmas morning (genuine envy...).
The best hour in the last week. Thanks.
Thanks for a very interesting overview of your machine. What a versatile piece of equipment!
Hi Stefan. I used to operate an Aciera F4 in the early sixtie, it looked very much like the one you are describing. Mine had all the attachments with it. It was a joy to operate. I wish I had one in my shop now. Brilliant videos by the way.
What a versatile machine. Options available for setups are mind boggling 😂 congratulation’s beautiful craftsmanship in its construction
Amazing. So very happy for you. Thanks for sharing.
Wow, what a beautiful machine. Now i understand why we have three of these at school. So much versatility. Congrats with the purchase.
Gorgeous machine Stefan!!! Thank you for sharing
Nice machine. I think this is the model I used in school for toolmaking, I really liked it.
What a wonderful machine. It’s found a good home in your shop.
You have obtained a bucket list/ dream mill. Congratulations Stefan.
Congratulations to the new machine!
Also thanks a lot for showing all the attachments, I always like to look at the old catalogues but it is rare to see them in action :)
And great, now I think I also need an FP1 :D
This has so many features in such a small form factor, I wouldn't know what to do with it. Great little machine, in capable hands. Looking forward to what you're going to be doing with it.
Ideal machine for home workshop! Thx for comprehensive presentation of capabilities.
It's a lovely machine, Stefan and you have the ability to use it with good effect. A very interesting presenation, thanks for filming it. Mart in England.
A very nice addition to the shop Stefan.
I managed to toolroom with three of these Fp1s. They are absolute gems and met our needs for the small work precision our customers required. They were utilized 3 to 1 over the Bridgeports in the shop.
Fantastic video with an in depth intro to a great little machine. Now I know to appreciate them:). Cannot wait to see, what you will be doing with it.
Such a Kool and capable mill! I look forward to seeing You put it through it's paces. I wish those were easier to find in the U.S.
What a crazy cool milling machine. Congratulations Stefan 👍. Need a few weeks courses just to learn to set up all the variations.
I wish those were more popular here, it's quite a universal machine! Congrats that's a real beauty!
Hi Stefan
I was an apprentice on the FP1. It is a marvelous Munich machine design. I own both a Schaublin and Deckel milling machine and they are both fantastic versatile machines. (I must say that accesories for Schaublins eat in on you payslip faster than Deckel)
Thanks for the super well made Deckel Video !
Awesome! I seen your post about this a few days ago and I've been dieing to see an in depth look at it. Very cool machine! Congratulations on your purchase! This is going to bring you more capability.
I seed it to. Great machine.
Such an interesting overview of a very well made machine. Thank you for sharing 👏👏👍😀
Super Nice machine Stefan! i am realy happy that you got a Fp1 because i always wanted to get closer infos about the fp1 and its features. also interesting to see the xtric vise in use . greets from Vienna, Pirmin
An amazing machine,l spent six months of my apprenticeship on this model.Brings back memories of my toolroom experience the sixties.
Thank You for Your time and effort.
WOW, what an awesome versatile machine, that's truly wonderful, I really enjoyed watching you show it to us, thanks for sharing, many thanks, cheers from me. 😷
What a fantastic machine! Looking forward to seeing it in use.
Congratulations on the new machine. You have always amazed me of the quality of work you have learned to do on a Chinese mill. You have payed your dues on that old thing. You deserve this amazing new /used machine😊. Can wait to see what you do with it.
Fantastic. That's my kind of mid-life crisis! Thanks very much for the extensive tour.
Thanks for this video. I recently purchased an FP1 identical to yours with the same accessories including an adjustable table and various tooling. Looking forward to learning new ways of manipulating it in future videos.
Wow! This video is quite an eye opener to the incredible versatility of the Fp1 :o
Darn cool machine
Wow ‼️…
Stefan,
This is the best ‘drool’ vid I’ve ever seen. What an incredibly versatile tool eh?
Well done on this acquisition , and thanks for taking the time to put together such a comprehensive video.
Regards,
Robert
Thank you for the video and introducing it to us. You deserve a machine like this.
I can't wait to see the parts that you create on it. Take care and stay away from wood.
Lovely mill, Stefan. Reminds me of the Schaublin 12 that I ran for years. The outrigger for the horizontal spindle on that could also be used on the dividing head. Rigid too but getting very rare in the condition yours is in. Well done!
What a universal and clever machine. Just saw a fp1 at a machine dealer with a Heidenhain TNC 123 dro
Thank you for taking the time to produce such an excellent video. It is much appreciated.
Subscribed.
Had there been a shot in the video of you bum I'm sure we would have seen 2 tails comming out of it 😊 I can also tell by your voice that you are so thrilled with the new addition to the shop, I'm pleased for you too and cannot wait till we see it getting put to work with all the posibilities it has having all the additional extras you got with it. I hope it turns out as good as it looks.
Beautiful piece of equipment, may it serve you well.
It's so eerily quiet! That's a plus!
Great acquisition of the best machine tools built in Germany. Congratulations.
Gran adquisición de las mejores maquinas herramientas construidas en Alemania. Felicitaciones.
THANK YOU STEFAN.
Such a nice machine. So versatile.
Really nice machine, congrats!! The more I learn about the European style mills, the more I like them. Also, a Deckel deckel. 😂 I love that.
Two things stand out to me, very compact for small parts machining and incredibly versatile. It looks like the Swiss Army knife of milling machines. Also looks to be quite robust. Thanks for the very thorough rundown on capabilities.
I have known for sometime now you are very fond of the Deckel tool room milling machine Stefan. I am glad you were finally able to justify the purchase of such a wonderful machine. The range of accessories for the Deckel is mind boggling. The indexing thing you have there is interesting and very handy looking for the small parts you make, dare I say perfect?
For power tapping a small tap head such as Tap-Matic 30X head might be a nice option. No need to reverse the spindle.
It seems to me, other than not having all the available accessories, imagination is the only limiting factor for the FP-1! All you need now is a compact gantry crane (that you don't have room for!) to lift the different accessories. Oh and stay away from wood, that stuff is dangerous! Cheers and congratulations.
as a fun academic experience my uncle bolted a bridgeport slotter to the spindle of his vertical milling center and used it in conjunction with a 4th axis to generate involute gear teeth. it works quite well, and will cut any conceivable number of teeth or helix angle
'Will never buy a (fill in blank)." I've often prayed that every never I've ever spoken are finally behind me. Who says God doesn't have a sense of humor? Nice machine Stefan! Hope it meets or exceeds your expectations.
Ran one back in 1973. One of the best mills ever made.
That machine is absolutely amazing! I didn't know that such versatile machines even existed.
It's like the Swiss Army knife of machine tools! I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if it also had scissors, tweezers, and a magnifying glass.
Wow, simply astounding!!! :)
Thanks for thorough introduction! I had a summer job in mid -90 where I operated with two Deckel mills, can't remember the models. Great machines, but it took quite a while for me to orientate with the axis. One moves the tool and others the workpiece. And leaning back to Bridgeport setup in next job was equally difficult. The powerfeed gearbox was somewhat lottery of directions. And using the fastest speed as rapid movement caused me a few collisions. The drawbar spanner orbits suitably at forehead height if forgotten on the bolt, far more dangerous then lathe chuck key sling. The centring microscope with lamps was superb.
Thanks for the great video. Once I used the FP1 and Aciera F3 in my apprenticeship days in the 80s at Brown Boveri-Singapore Training Centre, former Rollei Singapore. Will be building a clone FP1 desktop if possible, for small parts machining. Hope to view more of your FP1 in action. Thank you!
Beautiful machine and presentation - the name "Rube Goldberg" also comes to mind...in a very nice way of course.
Old, but good! Congrats on the new shop tool!
Really nice work Stefan, thank you. God has definitely blessed you with natural gifts. You not only have the ability to do what you do in your field, but also to do it better than most. And also a gift to teach. I don’t know if you do this on purpose, but you explain things in a way that’s easy to understand….at least to me. I have to see things done in order to understand them….can’t just read a book and get it. I appreciate your hard work👍 Thanks again
Lol 😂 for a guy who said he would never get one it sure does put a smile on your face I hope you enjoy it for a long time
That's an absolutely brilliant machine.
It's on my list of unicorns, they don't come up for sale often where I live and when they do they're quite a bit more expensive than I feel like an almost 70yr old machine should be, at least for how used and dogged out most of the ones I've seen are.
Yours looks to be in exceptionally good shape.
I'm falling in love to FP1!
Very interesting looks like a fantastic machine I'll be looking forward to seeing it in use
Very nice machine, I'm envious. Maybe some day I can own one, but I would have to get the attachments. I currently have a RF-30 and I am learning. I have also attached a small jib crane to help me with the vise and other items when placing them on the table. Enjoy your new to you tool!
I have a new-found pride in my late father's German engineering background, which he seldom spoke about. For some strange reason. Great content as usual Stefan
Enjoyable tour, been looking for many years for the right machine , always a dealer here in England beats me to the good deals.I have a beautiful CenteC 2b I rebuilt long ago, but it’s too small for some jobs.
Keep the content coming! Thanks
This is an excellenty machine with a lot of options, congratulations.
