Default Mass duplication question

Hi, I have a friend in Michigan who carves as a hobby. He recently made a wooden duck (approximately 1 foot in size) for his grandson and it turned out so nice he would like to give some to others. Does anyone know of a place that would make a few duplicates (and he would then paint those) of the original? Most places he's found only produce large quantities. Any information you could provide would be appreciated. Thank you!

Try the Philippines or Malaysia, Thailand or India they will carve one or ten thousand. Here is the thing with duplicate carving machines it still takes a real woodcarver to “fix” the carving.

I tried, to no avail, to find a place that would duplicate his duck. I did, however, find this site in Michigan that he could probably contact. They would know of any local services like that.

Hope this works, Tim
