    So did you

    A - glue the block and piece
    B - allow only part of the screw through

    If Glued did you use CA, Epoxy or Hotmelt??

    Good job Ian I still have yet to make 3 spacers

    Now all you have to do is reverse chuck it and finish it off.

    Have you tapered the tenon and is it deep enough.........?

    Hey Ian,
    when you rechuck a bowl like that with a thin walled recess, be careful not to over tighten it. The vicmarc chuck has enough force to break the walls.
    (should have said that yesterday with that pine one )

    We're always learning.
    Today I learned that if you don't like turning end grain don't stick a 14" Bunya Pine log on the lathe and try to turn a thin walled end grain bowl!
