How to taper a mast on a model ship. This can also be made using a drill.

Although this technique uses a lath to taper the mast, you could hold the blank square wood in a drill and using sand paper achieve the same thing. It will be more difficult to reduce the bands but it is possible. In fact before i had my lath this is how i tapered my mast sections. You may also use a round dowel in this case.
