Vega D-48 48-Inch Professional Lathe Duplicator

24-inch professional lathe duplicator thats an excellent investment for the serious turner or furniture builder Precision accuracy for exact duplications of metal and wood shapes Easy to use and maintain for a variety of applications and longer tool life Includes mounting attachments for easy assembly on nearly all 10- and 12-inch swing lathes How-To video is included; weighs 63.4-pounds shipped
Creating a beautiful table leg on a lathe is a joy. But creating three more absolutely identical to it is a daunting task. But here comes a tool that will do it for you. After initial assembly, which is kind of detailed, youll be ready to copy anything you can turn. Its imperative to follow the setup directions exactly (and the video is more help than the written directions), because if youre off even a fraction of an inch in your initial setup, youre assuring yourself of errors. After that, though, using it is just as much a joy as turning the original piece. Dont dismiss it as diminishing the art of the craft, either, because the duplicator can be controlled by hand. There are a number of accessories, too, that we like, including the spiral attachment and the router bracket, which easily lets you create fluted contour pieces. Its easy to use and, we admit, fun, too. And it will turn out as many copies of your original piece or any template for years to come. We think its the perfect investment for the serious turner or furniture builder.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste
