I'm trying to rough the outside so I'm not grabbing the bowl by a cut tenon on one side (I'm trying to create the tenon as well!) but I'm trying to spin the blank between centers to get a good round shape. I've done one blank which turned out well and made the tenon (need to procure a chuck next!) to hold in the chuck. But I've also noticed that the top and bottom are not parallel. Not that much of a biggie as I'll turn the one side flat, but this new blank wobbles so much and I'm trying to find the best way to center it between the centers.
I am rounding out the blank initially on the bandsaw, but man does this thing make the lathe wobble. I'm using a Jet mini lathe.
Thanks in advance for any help!
