A few people mentioned turning the tapered end to a constant, say 3/4" diameter. How would one hold an endmill in a chuck to accomplish this? I'm thinking of a ~1" long cylinder, bored with a taper to mate with the big end of the endmill shank, outside diameter anything bigger than the endmill size, and then one split so that it can clamp down on the endmill shank. Then chuck on the newly machined length and finish the remaining tapered portion... ?
Not that I'm considering doing any of this but it crossed my mind!
