    Default Taper turning attachment - setup help

    Hi guys,
    I have a project which requires a taper longer than I can cut with the compound so I need to use my taper attachment, however I haven't used it before and I think I'm missing a part. Can somebody who has one of these original taper attachments please post a pic of the part which the handle screws onto? I have looked through all the bits & bobs that came with my lathe and there really isn't anything that looks remotely correct. Seems like it should be an easy part to make though.
    Cheers!

    That's a big help Simon, thankyou! I reckon I can probably run with it based on the pic but if I'm getting stuck I might get you to run a mic over it for me.
    Cheers!

    I can get you a genuine new one ($24) but it's probably cheaper to make your own.
