    Mill spindle regrinding setups?

    After some ideas of how people have setup to regrind a taper in a spindle. I'm trying to come up with a simple setup to regrind the taper for my Bridgeport mill (R8 taper). I have a cylindrical grinder, I can get the required angle with the table shift, just what's an easy way to drive the spindle when grinding? And how have people mounted the spindle on the table?

    Pictures say a thousand words...



    Thanks.
