I work at a shop and had the guys make me a really large and long taper vat because I like long tapers. What is the best way to make long tapers, or what is the best way to heat a vat to make tapers? I was thinking about either using a turkey fryer as a double boiler or or by boiling a pot of water on a portable electric stove. Does anyone have any advice for this particular situation?
