Default Taper as directed on the video

Hi Brion,

I'm using the instructions from the DVD. I believe that my measurements and taper are as you specified. I just tried again on a piece of 1 year old Sta Set 5/16" that's never been used. Same results - about 1 1/2" from home. It does seem as though the trouble starts about where the cover taper ends. I'm starting the cover taper about 3 diameters from the point where the core enters the cover, then doing 6 yarns at each tracer from there on. I'm only tapering the last 8 diameters of the core. Is that correct? It also feels like I've run out of slack in the cover, however that's only a guess.
