I urgently require information regarding a Deckel - FP1 universal milling machine. In particular an operators manual or any information regarding dismantling/assembly, a source for spares etc. Please reply to this email address : ikie snipped-for-privacy@hotmail.com or to the group. I would appreciate any phone numbers from fellow model engineers who could help me in the UK regarding this machine. I am not on the internet and this email is being sent by a family member. Thank you for taking the time to read regards Gerald.

First off this is a terrible machine. It's probably only worth scrap metal value. Anyone who purchased this machine probably did not realize they made a big mistake, so please send me his name and address so that I might go there straight away and give him his money back for it, and haul away the scrap metal he's been burdened with.
:^)
But seriously, you will have good luck posting the request here:
This is a special-purpose site for deckel (amongst others) users and the folks there are quite knowledeable.

And a guy that goes by the handle "wrench" there sells a CD chock full of Deckel info. Good quality stuff, too, from what I've seen.
