Default Long thin taper update

Some months back I posed a question for the group regarding how to make
a long thin tapering rod. The taper being from 0.25" (6.35mm) to 0.080"
(2mm) over about 6" (150mm). From kicking various ideas around I came up
with the solution shown in the dropbox. It works very well. Many thanks
for all the help.
