Tim did you make the duplication jig or did you purchase it.. I do wood working and I love your work the figure and grain of the wood looks great.

Wont say how long it took me,,,,,,,,,,,,, the first one I duplicated inletting & outside shaping took me almost 6 hours.(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-cry.gif)After a few I cut that time in half.(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-laughing.gif)Now,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, I have "Cut" that time considerably!!(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-cool.gif)(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-innocent.gif)(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-laughing.gif)!!!! I can take it out of the duplicator looking like "9 Miles of bad road" now & have it sanded to DIY 80 grit finish in mere hours!!(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-laughing.gif)Problem is,,,,,, I lost my wood blank connection,,,,,,,, I gotta pay full price now for my solid & Laminate blanks.(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-cry.gif) Oh well,,,,,, I will just pass that cost on to Yall. LOL!! Timbo(http://i251.photobucket.com/albums/gg312/Timmyj1959/20Weeks002.jpg)

Tim how thick of a blank are you using 8/4? You might have to get a planner and big enough band saw to resaw your own lumber.. I look around to the tree trimming companies and pick up sections of wood all the time.

Wingman,,,,, My duplicator is a Radar Carve model. Tiny ball bearing slides,,,, a very nice machine. I use 10/4 & 8/4 blanks. I have a planer & 14" powermatic bandsaw. I had a REALLY big bandsaw,,,,,, a Wood Mizer portable saw mill I ran for years.(http://../jscripts/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-cool.gif)I have a Friend just down the road that has the biggest turbo diesel model they make. Trouble is,,,,, we gots no walnut trees round here!! Timbo.
