Nearly Finished turning the Taper

The tool used for the turning is my parting tool.

The end of the blade has been ground in a semi circle, so that I get rounded corners at both ends.
The rounded corners make for a stronger rod.

The keen observers amongst you will note that one rod is better than the other in this respect :-)

Still they both look nice and shiny.
