Found while searching Craig's for carving chisels. It will do gunstocks nicely, just take off the plywood platform.

You are better than I am I can't find anything on Craigs in Missoula like this unit

...

I found it via a full internet search. Never found it using a Craigslist search.

searchtempest.com

Plug in your zip code and miles you want to search, tempest hits all the Craig's sites. I usually search a 500 mile distance.

I was searching "Tools" for "Carving" and this Duplicator popped up.

If searching for a duplicator, I would use "duplicator" and if this turns up nothing then put in the makers names and search.

No spindles.It's just a carver.

Spindles are there, you are not looking close enough.

The plywood is for carving flat back stuff like wall hangings. Look close and you can see the two gray colored spur heads that engage the butt end of the stocks. Centers up front are hidden by the plywood.

And the turning mechanism is there, under the blue sheet metal cover with the yellow sticker. The handle is removed from the cross shaft that extends across the frame, under the blue sheet metal cover. Look just to the left of the yellow sticker and you can see the cross shaft.

Look at mine below. Note the two gray colored spur heads on the right. (The wood strip is there to protect the cutters when the spindles are "parked"). The turning mechanism is hidden under the blue sheet metal cover on the far right. Mine has linear guide bearings on the carriage, the one for sale has the more common cable and drum wheel system for the carriage travel and alignment.

Yep I cheated and went to the Terrco site than back to the picture and blew it up.

That looks like the same machine George at Treebone Carving uses; turns out really nice work in his hands.
