Hi All,
Attached is a pic of my latest work, a curley maple coffee table. I turned the legs and this is an example of a question that came up earlier in the turning forum regarding using duplicators to turn multiple legs. I hand turned these 4 legs and you can't look at them and tell a difference. I think a duplicator might be a nice item to use if you had to make many parts identically but, for making legs and such it is faster and easier to turn them by hand. If done reasonably well your eye won't be able to detect individual differences between the turnings.
Thanks,
