This post is for discussion about turning tapers between centers with the dead center in the spindle and the live center OFFSET in the tail stock.
The material to be turned 12L14 with centers made in the lathe chuck with a center drill
The shaft to be tapered being driven with a lathe dog
What are the thoughts on the effects of the male centers being at different angle than the shafts centers affecting concentrically?
Or taking the part out of the lathe to check mating fit with a known tapered sleeve and being able to replace the part on centers exactly from the previous cut?
