Thanks Pat, I now know what Charlie meant by scary. I missed it due to my lack of experience. That is if Charlie was talking about the Tenon...
I do need to ask Pat, is the tenon not supposed to be bottomed out into the chuck?
As soon as I chucked it up I knew there was going to be problem, it was like a sponge. As I was tightening down the jaws they just squeezed on the holes. Turned at 100 and in less than 30 seconds bowl was loose, the defects in the Tenon were worm holes. I remounted it back on the Face plate and removed the tenon, ended up with one worm hole and one worm that I extracted from the blank.
So now I am a bit stuck, the 1 worm hole is right at the tenon area and I am not sure what to do at this point. The hole is deep, at least over an inch deep into the blank. Not sure how to chuck it up to turn the inside???
