Jarrah dish with lolly inlay
I'm slowly getting better with bowl turning - understanding the best stance, ways to approach the wood with the tool, sharpening, etc. There is a lot to take in. While the results aren’t perfect, this was an experiment in using unusual materials to offset/contrast against the natural timber. It is nice to have a play with what does or doesn’t work in providing visual interest to work pieces.
Video of the process (gosh I really messed up the epoxying, try not to cringe too hard)

Before Longworth
See post #8 here: https://www.woodworkforums.com/f8/reverse-mounting-bowls-161476 for an interim method.

Thanks! That looks fairly reasonable. The only issue I've got with donut/jam chucks is I've got a MC-1100, and currently the tailstock just doesn't line up. I really need to get that sorted, but don't feel like taking the bus back to popsshed with a tailstock in my bag this week
How well does that hold up without the tailstock providing support? :/

With a donut chuck you don't need tail stock support as the work is securely clamped between the two disks, but you would want it with a jam chuck unless you use hot melt glue to secure it to the jam chuck and use masking tape to tape it up.
Maybe your tail stock doesn't line up may be because you had the head stock for outboard turning and it hasn't been set up accurately again.

No tailstock
You don't need the tailstock for the tape-and-disk method either. Just use plenty of tape. I still use the tape with my Longworth for insurance.
Cheers'
