The Model SB1269 features scales at both ends,
reading inches-per-foot and degrees. An angle
adjusting knob with fine threads achieves
exacting control when setting tapers.
Another feature is the ability to use the taper
attachment without disengaging the cross slide
nut. This design allows the taper attachment to
be functional at any time by simply tightening
the two deadman-clamp cap screws, which lock
the deadman-clamp to the rear lathe way.
