Lathe Duplicator with Angle Grinder
My version of a Lathe Duplicator was inspired by The Homestead Craftsman, and his video entitled Homemade Wood Lathe Duplicator using an Angle Grinder. Basically, the only things I changed from the original design is the grinder blade, and the table surface of the duplicator. My modifications were made to create turnings with a little finer detail and less clean-up, which the carbide cutter provides, and more versatility and adjustability for mounting the pattern to the table top.
