Nice attachment, but I would suggest turning the smallest end diameters last. Maintain the support for as long as you can for rigidity and safety. Same principle for turning steel.
I’ve found that burnishing the wood produces a gorgeous and hard finish (after sanding) - I often use a cutoff from an oily species like olive, and rub it firmly against the rotating piece (at low speeds)
I made a shield out of a polycarbonate panel that I folded and stretched to the top of the duplicater. It does a great job of keeping shavings from hitting me and also make cleanup easier
Thanks for this! Do you have the cutter head in the center or just below center? Mine is leaving a lousy finish. It looks like it was a stabbed a bunch.
Hi. Yes the cutter head should be just below center. I would suggest you speed up the lathe speed and be sure to keep the "ship wheel" moving at all times.
@@gordlanger7064 Thanks Gord! I’m doing both of these things that I’m wondering if I am sharpening my cutter incorrectly. Do you have any advice about that?

Hi, its a Vega. All the information needed is in my article (issue #57) on this site: archive.constantcontact.com/fs030/1103251462235/archive/1103792031624.html Cheers, Gord

Thanks, Gord! I look forward to watching more of your videos!
I learned some things, thanks.
Great info! I would take off your ring prior to putting hands near the turning lathe.
😄
Nice machine. It looks like you need another lathe. One for the duplicator and one for final finishing.
BTW, thanks for the video!

Hi Wayne, I get between $40 and $60.00 / pin depending on the type of wood being used.
Cheers, Gord.
Great video! Please let me know template's typical extra room from the end of profile to be left for holding down in the duplicator.à

What technique do you use to form/manipulate the polycarbonate?
@@mavenfeliciano1710
I just used a heat gun and folded it over the edge of a board.
Good idea!
Do you have plans of how you made this? This is awesome. I’m subscribing to this.
Hi the duplicator is from Vega . I purchases it from them. It was expensive but well worth it. Thank you for your comments. Gord
Finish it off with 220 on a random orbit sander while it's turning and you'll have zero scratches.
What lathe are you using? I’d love to get one
Which food grade finish do you recommend? Do you not recommend applying the finish while turning at a slow speed then parting the ends?
I use food safe salad bowl finish while on the lathe slow speed to start the high speed to finish off. Then part the ends. Gord
Hi Bees Wax or Salad Bowl finish is the best/ safest to use. Gord
How much do you get for your French Pastry Rolling Pin?
Subbed

Will that lathe duplicator work well with mahogany?

Каска прикольная
Is there a link to your website?
Do you have a video om the set up of a Vega dup. I just got a used one and need help
Terry
Sorry do not have a set up video. Perhaps contact vega woodworking directly.
Where can I buy that duplicator?
Can we make a drum stick on this machine?
Not sure, sorry. They are thin and may whip without additional support. A Spindle steady rest would help.
