Default Information on duplicating

How can I duplicate candle holders etc.

Two ways:

1. Get a duplicator for your lathe - search 'lathe duplicator' - most
common manufacturer is Vega. Relatively fast.

2. Transfer the profile of the candlestick onto a piece of hardboard and
cut it out. Match the negative of the hardboard profile with the positive
of the candlestick as you turn it. To help transfer the profile, get a
profile gauge. Relatively slow.
