Timothy, It appears that Minnesota is the heart of the woodworking/woodturning world even the AAW is headquartered there.
Have been at it for over 60 years only but have met but a few that derives any decent living from it, I’m even a sawyer but have a day job to pay the bills. When I see Rollie in April at Fine Woodworking Live 2019 I’ll drop your name perhaps it’ll get me a free beer at the loungeJ. Do you have a CNC? Keep checking them out at these shows but my wife says she’ll ship me out to Minnesota if I come home with one… Keep in touch, I never seem to make it out your way pretty much stick to the Adirondacks and New England (yea the Patriots won).

I actually will see Rollie today as he's coming by to pick up a cabinet we worked on together. He build the face frame and drawer fronts and I did the drawer boxes and cabinet boxes them selves. Then I stained and finished it as well. We did a little barter for this project. Little build in cabinet with 9 drawers, floor to ceiling type. Also will meet Wednesday night with the Central Minnesota Wood Workers Association which Rollie is a very big part of. Really great to have him as friend. Cool guy.With out a doubt.

I use a Vega D36 for most of my spindle duplicating needs on my Powermatic 4224B lathe.

I do a lot of duplication for my business. Was there a gentleman by the name of Rollie Johnson there? He would have been demoing some tool or something and also representing "Fine WoodWorking". Close friend and I text him the other day and he stated he was in Massachusetts so yea just curious. He is a contributing Editor for the magazine and does a lot of tool reviews and demos etc...

Find it interesting that most such Club members aren’t into spindle turning or making duplicates of anything but more one of a kind artistic endeavors. Was demonstrating the last 2 days at the Woodworking Show in West Springfield, Mass cranking out scores of Harry Potter Magic Wands for the kids, my only tool was a 1” Sorby skew on a Jet Mini Lathe using 1” x 14” cherrywood. The finish from the skew requires little or no sanding to the point that even 400 grit sand paper would dull it.

The below link to a Shopsmith Lathe Duplicator (in Albany, Ohio?) may be of interest to them. These Lathe Duplicators don't show up for sale very often - so thought I'd share it. (Full disclosure: I know nothing about the owner/seller nor the item they are selling.
