>Hi Darrell,
Thanks for the link to your site, there's a lot of good information there. I really like the sawhorse design. I was looking for something along those lines and that looks like it will fit the bill.
I like the in progress pics as well.
Thanks,
Mike

>I'm as green as you can get when it comes to turning.
One of the problems I have had turning bowels (only a few,) is using a screw faceplate with a coarse threaded screw to hold the bowel.
This of course leaves a nasty hole in the bottom.
I was surpirsed at your method of using a wooden block attached to the bottom of the bowel with hot glue. ????
Seriously?? Everyday run of the mill hot glue??
I never would have thought this would be strong enough to support the blank.
What about a normal catch from a novice like me?Is that going to send it into orbit?
Is this just a tip for an accomplished "consistent" turner?
Thanks... great site.
