Review on General Tools Contour Duplicator 6 Inch by Brian Schultz

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Once you loosen the pins, it's great!

When taken out of the box it is quite rigid in action - so much so that the metal pins can bend or scratch the object when trying to profile something. Lubricating didn't help. Two knobbed, brass-colored caps that hold the entire knot together provide tension. By CAREFULLY inserting a screwdriver blade under each end cap, on either side, on either end, and lifting a little, you can adjust the tension to make the pins slide more easily. Be careful not to rip off the end caps, I guess you'll end up with a mess when reassembling. tightness. However, this is not a problem if you move slowly and easily. Now I can use this tool to profile guitar necks and anything that is thin, brittle or prone to scratching without worrying about damaging it.

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Requires power socket
