Â* Yeah , I ordered one on ebay for about 12 bucks . Close inspection
revealed that when I cut from left to right the cut was convex , like a
barrel . Just the opposite cutting from r to l , concave . That one did
fit and hold , but it was just the ends that were in contact with the
chuck taper . That's OK though I can use that R8 adapter for another
project on down the line .

Just for grins I did a search on taper attachments and found a web site that had instructions on hand fitting tapers. gadgetbuildir.com/taper
