It is worth looking up the original article, as it has a couple of pictures including a slide, although one caption says this is the unfinished tailstock. Sadly Mr Bergin appears to have died before writing up all the components.

Issue_7 also has an excellent design for a Taper Turning attachment.

Well worth a look … designed for Toyo; it appears to be readily adaptable.
