OK sorry, can never tell if I am telling someone to suck eggs or talking way over what they are confident with.  You have me scratching my head over this one as the taper and bore can't both be good and then out when together ???

Mate I have been at this for 5 days on and off.

Take the next 5 days off then come back to it.  Bet things look different after a break. :)

'Myford' always suggested that you hold a round bar in the three jaw and  machine two rings at one setting- and then mike them.

Oddly I got a thing when I bought a very second hand Myford ML10.

Perhaps Georg Schlesinger is where you should really aim.
