In another thread @DaveTooley recently posted using a triangular piece of paper inside an aluminum sleeve to hold a tapered barrel in a steady rest.

Well I needed to install an LV in a glue and screw for which I did not have a workable tapered PXL_20250306_140536439.PORTRAIT.ORIGINAL.jpgPXL_20250306_140419366.jpg

sleeve for my barrel vice. So I tried Dave's approach and just cut a straight sleeve.

Worked great with a piece of sheetrock tape and a little rosin....didn't slip a bit.

Thanks for the tip Dave.
