I have a penn state dulicator, the tool rest is 12" long and can be used as a manual tool rest, just slide the cutter out of the way...

Unless I'm through drilling with the lathe, I leave it set up.

Even with the duplicator I "knock down" the edges with my roughing gouge and eyeball the size before using the dupe cutter.. saves time and wear and tear on my dupe cutter
