Hello, my name is Jaroslav Voboril. I am from the Czech Republic. I have
several old cars and a small workshop. I'm interested in shaping metal and
gradually learn the job. Intrigued me some ideas and I also add my own.

Jaroslav, is that a machine that you own? Is it a top or bottom stroke? Which part moves, top or bottom?

That is an interesting machine. The oldest I've ever seen.

Yes, I am the owner of this machine. I have no tools, only my work, but I try.

Jaroslav, your machine is very interesting. I would like to see more pictures of it from different angles. Trying to figure out how it works and what adjustments it has.

Kerry Pinkerton 12-06-2012 03:40 PM

I agree with Joe. More photos please. How do the tools mount? No reason you could not adapt to new Eckold tooling? We helped some folks with previous version (bottom stroke) machines adapt to the new quick change tools.

Just because the machine is old, does not mean it won't work fine.

Jaroslav,
'BFW" was the original name of the Messerschmitt company (Bayeriche Flugzeug Werke- Bavarian Aircraft Factory). They were located in Augsburg just north of Munich. Focke-Wulf was a separate company founded after BFW. I once wrote a book on aviation history.
