Shopsmith Lathe Duplicator
Create Perfect Professional Duplicates Easily with the Lathe Duplicator
If you have been fearful of the lathe, this incredible accessory could help you master many of the key techniques of proficient turning
The Amazing Shopsmith Lathe Duplicator Helps You Turn Precisely Matched Spindles, Bowls & Other Faceplate-Mounted Projects With Speed and Ease
Now you can quickly and easily make multiple spindle or faceplate turnings that match perfectly. Create chair backs, newel posts and stair railings. Turn matched sets of bowls or round gift boxes. Duplicate pieces up to 8-inches in diameter with cuts to 3-1/4-inches deep!
Work with flat patterns or existing turnings such as worn or broken porch spindles. A simple micro-adjustment assures cutting tip to follower tip alignments as close as 1/64-inch. Then just grasp the floating tool rest assembly (which holds the cutting & follower tips) firmly with both hands and glide it smoothly across the worktable surface while the follower tip traces the pattern and the cutting tip does the work. Simple!
The two-handed grip gives you positive control of every cut. It's nearly impossible to slip and ruin a turning! Use the follower tip when duplicating... or remove it and turn freehand without fear of gouging.
The rugged worktable mounts in your Mark 7 or Mark V's table carriage. Heavy steel supports clamp quickly to the Mark 7 or Mark V's upper way tubes to hold the pattern securely. Includes safety guard and 12" wide, clear chip deflector shield for added safety. Unit folds for compact storage.
