"I have 2 long blocks with strips of sanding belt fixed to them.  the blocks are then fixed to a board, 1/2" apart at one end, 3/8" at the other.  then hold an over length arrow shaft in a pistol drill and run the shaft at slow speed between the blocks, from wide end end to narrow.  I can adjust the taper between the blocks to suit what I need and how long the taper needs to be."

Thats a great method. Thank you for sharing!
