Default Grinding or Turning a Morse Taper?


"Jim Wilkins"

I've never cut a taper before, and I need to get this
one right to make sure I don't screw up my boring head, so
advice would be appreciated!

Thanks,

Dan

=====================

Even if you succeed you may not like the result. Morse #2
won't resist much torque and the hole will likely taper
smaller as the tailstock extends. Save the boring head for
your Bridgeport.
