Abstract

A duplicating carving machine for the home workshop of the kind in which a guiding stylus and router are movable horizontally in straight line perpendicular paths and vertically in an arcuate path. Rigid construction of the machine permits manipulation of the router from a safely remote point and includes means for mounting masters and work pieces having a wide variety of shapes and sizes so as to be conveniently accessible to the stylus and router, means for independently locking the stylus and router against horizontal movement in either direction at any point, means for locking the stylus and router in various angular positions with respect to tangency with their arcuate path of travel, and means for adjusting the spacing of the stylus and router.
