Tools and materials I propose:
In this video I use the technique of a jam chuck to turn a deep bowl. This is a simple method of turning a bowl without a chuck. In the video I used poplar wood and went for a shape close to a noodle bowl.
I first turned the exterior of the bowl between centres using mostly the bowl gouge.
At the bottom of the bowl I made a tenon that had a slight taper about 1 degree.
To make the jam chuck I mounted a piece on a face plate and turned it true. Using a spindle gouge I hollowed it. I made the hole slightly tapered again. I made it so the tenon of the bowl fit snuggly.
I then pushed the bowl in the jam chuck. I used the centre mark on the front to push the tailstock straight. This way it fit nice and straight in the chuck.
Then I started hollowing with the bowl gouge.
To clean the bottom I shaped a cone on the jam chuck. Then I pushed the bottom of the bowl against the tailstock in order to mount it straight again. With a spindle gouge I shaped the bottom. I left a small piece which i removed with a carving gouge. With the bottom concave bowls sit nicely on flat surfaces.
And my little bowl was ready. It is really useful to be able to make and use a jam chuck. But that was it. See you soon with a new project video.
