Behold: DupliGator! This is probably my best Thingiverse posting yet. I'm very excited to share it with you This thing works just like the machine at the hardware store that copies keys, like a router duplicator, and also like a lathe duplicator except that there is no motorized machinery and it works in 3D.
The idea is that you glue a source object to one geared platform using glue stick or other temporary glue, then you adhere a destination object in a removable way to the other gear. Next if you are right handed, you hold the gears steady with your left hand and guide the tool with your right hand over the source object, theoretically carving the destination material into the desired shape (approximately).
Now do be forewarned that this is a work in progress and I do not have any wax, clay, or chocolate for testing. So if you spend half a day printing this thing (if all goes well) and it does not work, do not be disappointed. I have tested it with no destination obj
