Deutsches Museum in Munich

[ACHiPo]

Was in Munich on business over the weekend and visited the Deutsches Museum. Highly recommended! Similar to Chicago's Museum of Science and Industry. Huge machine tool section, and a great exhibit on hard rock mining. Wish my German was better.

Here are a few pics I think you'll enjoy...

A MAHO CNC that would fit very nicely in my shop


This little Deckel would fit nicely, too...

Belt driven machine tools from the 1800s...


Very cute (and rare) hand operated table planing machine





This is a universal milling machine by Deckel

The bad part is now I’m really joesin’ for an FP1! Seems like the perfect size for my needs and I like the flexibility.

Sorry about the duplicates—I’m having issues posting with my iPad.

Well done the German folks for preserving these lovely mills for future generations to see , A bit of heaven has dropped down
