Wood Carving Duplicator for Perfect Copies Every Time
We're happy to answer any questions, feel free to call. Model One, with cutting bits. This is an amazing tool that will allow you to carve identical pieces from an original, and do it efficiently and quickly. Made of welded steel construction, it is extremely rigid and stable... And built for a lifetime of use. This machine will carve objects up to 8 inches in diameter, and any length desired. Length can be easily extended! Ball bearing guides move effortlessly on steel shafts while a router fitted with a carbide bit does the cutting. A nylon tipped guide pin follows the contour of the original with surprising ease. A wonderful addition to fine hand craftsmanship, this duplicator will allow you to cut a duplicate from a blank block of wood that needs only a final sanding to be finished. 005 inch can be achieved. Simply a wonderful tool for the hands-on person who wants to do his own work. The turning mechanism allows for the rotation of the workpieces a full 360 degrees, in unison, then they can be locked solidly in position for carving with the twist of a knob. Cutting can be done in three dimensions effortlessly. Setup is accomplished in a matter of minutes on your own table... A piece of 3/4 plywood is fine. Comes with cutting bits, guide pins, instructions... All you need to supply is the table or plywood to mount the mechanism and the router and you can start carving. WE DO NOT SUPPLY THE ROUTER. Will carve objects up to 35, with the standard length side rails, and this can be easily extended up to 7 Ft. With the construction of a simple sliding center panel of plywood (plans are included).
A handle is lightly held by the operator and the cutting bit follows the detail of the original exactly while the operator makes passes back and forth (or side to side) to remove excess wood. Simple manual operation allows you to proceed at your own speed. Cutting bits are easily changed to suit the carving.
A selection of carbide bits come with the machine, each one with a matching stylus. The Duplicator is very easy to operate and very forgiving...
You just can't make mistakes if you take it at a moderate pace. The best feature is that this duplicator will carve an unlimited number of items. Will carve new pistol grips superbly.
Gunstocks, both rifle and shotgun, furniture parts, Ball and Claw chair legs, Guitar necks, architectural millwork, virtually anything that will fit within the dimensions of 8 diameter can be duplicated. Need a Duplicator to handle wider items up to 16 wide, or even wider? See our'Model Two' on our website.
