I have just clicked on William’s link and it worked fine.

I do not have an Instagram account so no logging in was involved.

Interesting video too.

Sorry if it isn't straightforward to view, I don't think there is anything I can do about that. It's a shame because this guy puts up a lot of fascinating posts about machining small parts using a fabulous collection of machines, especially Schaublin.

I had no problem viewing the video, about what I do when turning down small diameter rods.

That’s the usual way to turn tapered small diameters just need a sharp tool that’s on centre.

I don't understand what is special about that technique…? Right to left?
