if IM doing an unknown degree taper on the revo I find the length of the taper I want and the difference in each end diameters half that and place feeler gauges under the tool at the headstock end of the taper slide down to the tail stock end and raise that end till it touches the tool and I use that as a starting point to do the taper, then I take a cut and check the taper and adjust as necessary the good thing about the revo is there is only one screw to adjust the height and taper makes it very easy to adjust I use a dial indicator for fine adjustments
I don't know if there is any better way but this works for me

I bought my revo new and apart from the assembly dvd the training dvd that came with it is the same one that comes with the 900
at least that is what I received

Anyone have the videos that came with the Revo? I bought mine used (no
longer made) and they were not included. I need to make some tapered
legs for a vanity stool. Any ideas here.. I do have a 900 Legacy
Standard CNC but it was used as well and no videos with it either. I
am learning the hard way with as I cannot see in my brain what the
GCode is doing (yet). The Revo is easier for me to see what it will be
doing before I make toothpicks..

Thanks,

Steve
