Milling a taper in thin steel

by John

I was reading an article published by The Home Shop Machinist today, and I was very surprised to see my name as the author.

I had submitted it to HSM several  years ago, and had totally forgotten about it.

I had to read the article to remind myself how I achieved this neat little trick, of machining an exact 1.5 degree taper in a very thin workpiece.
