Positive angles taper inward from the base mesh face. Negative angles taper
outward. The default angle, 0, extrudes the face perpendicular to the plane of
the mesh.
If the adjacent faces are not set to be joined, the faces that are selected for
extrusion are tapered to the same value. However, for joined extrusions, the
taper is applied only to the portion of the extrusion that is not adjacent to
another extruded face.
Specifying a large taper angle or a long extrusion height can cause the object
or portions of the object to taper to a point before reaching the extrusion
height.
 Angle of taper. Sets an angle between -90 and +90 degrees.
 Specify two points. Sets the taper angle to be the distance between two
specified points.
