Chris Heapy did a good taper turning attachment for the Myford using a piec=
e of angle iron to mount it and some hefty plate - I used 3/8". There was =
no vernier described, but that should not present too many difficulties. N=
ever quite finished mine! Need to get it out from under the bench only a f=
ew hours work left on it.
