A friend who says he is 'a little wobbly on his pins' came to check out a lathe duplicator I made from ShopNotes. I borrowed a folding stool for him to use and thought it would be a useful addition to the shop. I checked on line and after reading comments that current versions tend to fall apart I looked around for ideas on building my own. I found a set of plans for a couple dollars from A Simple Design of Ocala website.
I tried to purchase the plans but kept getting error messages. There was a phone # and e-mail address listed under contact information. I called, left a message and was in the process of writing an e-mail when the phone rang. The gentleman identified himself as the the owner of A Simple Design of Ocala a custom woodworking business. He had gotten the phone call but he needed to turn off the equipment in his shop so he could be heard.
He explained that the website is undergoing changes and some of the links are not working. He said if I gave him an e-mail address he would send the plans free of charge. I gave him my address and he remained on the line to verify I had gotten the pdf file and could open it.
I will probably never deal with Mr. Shaughnessy again as I am several states away but wanted to share his prompt and professional response.
