I see no dup? I looked but have no idea on the durability. Chris will. Their cutting tool prices for dup's are outrageous, both HSS and Carbide

I think I know the one your talking about it's funny that I just PMed PNG about it the cutter on the one he demoed with at Plugfest other day.

I was thinking for a hobby builder like myself that would only make at most a couple hundred plugs a year if I had a duplicator it would be a good buy. Less complex than a Vega, fewer moving parts, and inexpensive has put it on the need to get one list for me.

Thanks for taking me fishing Grandpa!

No pic
I'll assume its the PSI one for around a buck.
Its ok for light duty. If your making a few or more and in no hurry its fine. Pauls right, the carbide cutter is over priced. I use SS sheet metal for the templates.

Sell her stuff...

That was my first duplicator (might even be this one Chris has) . It's ok but a little slow. For what you want it should be fine. Off center turnings would be a snap.
