Lathe Duplicator

[dkirtus]

Hi All,
I'm new to the forum, not new to woodworking. I stumbled onto the forum looking for information on Shopsmith's lathe duplicator. Mainly, I am looking for one to buy. I see that they are not available on the Shopsmith website, are they not producing them anymore? Were there problems and did they just not work? Anyone with information out there?
Thanks,
Dkirtus (chips)

The duplicator is still there under the accessories then lathe. Try again.

Thank you for your information. I did in fact go to the SS site and located the lathe duplicator prior to my posting, however it states that it is not currently available. That is what lead me to create the post requesting any information. I have even been unable to find one on eBay, and they usually have everything by Shopsmith.
Still looking,
Dkirtus

Checked this morning, 13 Sep. Last Shopsmith entry was an unused lathe duplicator, complete. Item number: 170028957200

Happy bidding.

According to SS customer service personnel, "not currently available" on the website simply means the item is out of stock or on back order. The item is still available, you just have to wait until they restock or build the item before it will ship.

Hi Kenji, I'm a Traveling Academy Instructor for Shopsmith and I can assure you that we still carry the Lathe Duplicator. As a matter of fact, I currently have the Duplicator on sale for $395.99 which is $44.00 off the regular price.
If you are interested in further dialouge on this or any other subject, please contact me at my e-mail address and we can talk. Rick Davis
