I've been looking for a source of B&S 1 taper arbors or other accessories
but not seeing any located at tool suppliers. The B&S tapers are a somewhat
old standard, and aren't as commonly available, particularly the small ones,
as many of the other tapers are.

If anyone knows of sources or has any pieces that aren't being used/needed,
I'd appreciate hearing about them.

The #1 is under 1/4" at the large end, and about 1" long.

Deckel and others used a GA taper shank, which is likely also a B&S #1 taper
(not confirmed).

Gorton, Green, Lars have apparently utilized this taper for small tooling.

Thanks,

I found that B&S No 1 taper reamers are available from a few sources, it
seems.. JTS, Newman and Aircraft Spruce.

So far, I've only found taper pins available for securing parts/components
on homebuilt planes, from A-S mentioned above.

So it seems possible for a HSM to make/machine some small arbors or various
parts with B&S No 1 tapers, using the taper pins for material in fabricating
small arbors, collets or adapters for any number of uses.
