i cut my first half dozen morse tapers using the compound slide , the last tapers i cut that way was when i made an er32 collet chuck and it worked out just fine and i have been using that collet chuck a lot since . i read somewhere that most lathes have enough travel in the compound to cut thier own tapers .
but thats about the limit of travel . this attachment was going at less than half new price and is in as new condition . the best thing about it is being able to cut power feed .
