This shot shows the angle of the tool to the job. PLEASE be very aware of the small end swinging around.
The turning tool has a rounded end andthe top has been ground at about 90 degrees for cutting brass.
You can push the assembly closer to the chuck, but I prefer it out a bit so it iseasier to make measurements.
