    Yes
    First you get good, then you get fast. Then grouchiness sets in.

    He is referring you to Machinery's Handbook, the standard reference for just about anything related to machining. It has an entire section about standard tapers used on tool holders. If you know the name/style, i.e. morse taper, 5C, R8, of the holder just look it up.
    An open mind is a virtue...so long as all the common sense has not leaked out.
