Nice rebuild
try your local machinery dealer for a tapper socket or you could make a new one
Probably a dealer on every street corner in the Canary Islands!
That's amazing!: a Spanish version of an Italian lathe. All I can suggest is that you buy a larger taper, like a Morse taper 6 and machine the matching taper on the lathe. If you use epoxy resin instead of polyester (shrinks a lot) and mix it with some aluminium swarf/shavings and take a casting of the spindle taper. You could wax the spindle taper area to release the epoxy and plug the spindle using BLU-TACK at the narrow end and glue a cover over the wide end with a small opening at the top to pour the epoxy resin.
That way you have a fairly accurate copy to measure the taper angle from.
Good Luck!, very nice machine.
Into a spindle bore, couldn't you just run an indicator in EXACTLY 1.000" (or the metric equal) and measure the taper directly?
I've done it for B&S 11, seemed to work.
