Hi Pete

Very nice! DO you have a taper bar for doing the final taper on shafts? It
looks like the taper bar that is on the machine is straight. Also what are you using for the motor controls? I am in the process of getting all the parts together to build a saw that will cut 5 shafts at one time or 3 butts. When I get a little farther along I'll share some photos. I tried to get some of the people here to share there designs but yours is one of the few that I have seen. The machine looks very well designed and built!
