Hey

[CoolMoon]

Name here is David,
I am from Oregon but have been in Utah for the last while taking care of family. I found this site looking for ideas on a tapper attachment for my new to me 12 x 24" craftsman lathe. I am now working as an industrial refrigeration operator but have been in industrial maintenance, welding, fabricating, motor controls etc...

Hope to be able to contribute, see ya on the forum.

Thanks for the link, but I fat fingered tapper meant taper. Anyway I found a few on the site and am looking thru my parts and pieces. I will post what I come up with.
