Ive got a few ideal's on how to do this but I thought it wouldn't hurt getting some expert advice.
I need to tapper a brass rod from approx 3/16 down to 1/16 over maybe 4 inches. Im using a 50 year old lathe with wobbly knee's so not the best out there and I dont have a follower.
Any ideals or tricks to get a clean result over a long tapper and small diameter.
