What now?

[ElizaLeahy]

Now it's stuck....

Your not supposed to glue it Elisa :doh:

Need a very fine bladed knife slice and hand turn the chuck apply a little bit of side ways twisting once it starts to go in.

But the superglue stops it from flying off!!!!

Oh, ok :(

Got it off with the knife trick - thanks!

Now if only I hadn't misjudged the thickness of the base...

Now I have to make a stand to fill the hole!

LOL

:D

I thought you were talking about the lid being stuck Elisa :o

You meant the base well that should stick you still did well get yourself an old hacksaw just grind the teeth flat along the edge make a point like a skew but not to sharp.

Did you go through the bottom :roll::rolleyes: PIc's of the hole go on.

no problem reverse chuck it clean up around the hole very careful. remove it.
choose a wood different colour for a base you'll be happy with. You may need you clean up inside the bowl again do that first after you have glued the base on. Then finish the base

I did mean the lid, it was well jammed :)

But I got it loose, then when I cut off the bottom of the, errr, bottom, I cut through the base. Nice clean round hole!

I've made a stand out of some jarrah and marrie (?) pen blanks I'd glued together, then I took it off the lathe before remembering to polish it!

So I Danish oiled it.

Then I made the finial. In the dark because I wasn't going to let a little thing like night stop me. I have a 40 watt bulb out there. My nose was so close it kept getting friction burn :)

But the finial is now finished, and, beccause the Danish oil was out, it's soaking in it.

I'll take a photo soon and put it in the Challenge section. But first I better put on dinner, I just realised why Zoe kept coming out and saying "are you coming in soon?"

Ya gunnado that agin, jist ta make sure ya knows hows not ta do it?:D:D:p

[ElizaLeahy]

I thought the idea of a jam chuck was for it to JAM!

[wheelinround]

:doh::roll:

If it was a Jam chuck why did you glue it :?

Being a Jam chuck it would have been recessed and using the knife would not have been a good thing:no:.

Lack of information on your part Elisa :~

[ElizaLeahy]

I didn't glue it.

It is a box. The lid was jammed on the bottom so I could turn the top. It stuck.
