24" Vega Lathe Duplicator | 36" Vega Lathe Duplicator | 48" Vega Lathe Duplicator
For anyone who has to make more than a single turned object, duplicators are almost essential to a good job. Most tables, for example, look more professionally done when all the legs match. If you're making a production run of pens for advertising or other purposes, getting them as close to alike as possible, and doing the job as fast as possible, is important. |
These three Lathe Duplicators cover mini and midi lathes, and full-sized lathes with swings up to 16". A narrow diamond shaped HSS cutter is included with each duplicator and replacement cutters are available. The Diamond V Kit adapts the duplicator to use solid carbide inserts for production situations where frequent sharpening of the cutter is necessary. Each insert is two-sided and replacement inserts are available.
The Midi Duplicator is designed to fit almost any midi or mini lathe on the market and copies parts up to 10" long (there is a 24" version available, too). A nice feature of the Vega is that you retain the option to use hand tools to finish the work or to make changes the Duplicator can either be removed, or mounted on the back of the lathe with the cutter upside down. |
