Hi all
Thought I`d try to make a vase today and got the external shape fine how I want it. Then just held the bottom of the vase in the chuck only and thought I could hollow it out with my spindle gouge but the ruddy thing won`t have it and has flown out of the chuck narrowly missing my bonce twice now when I start with the gouge. I have Keith Rowleys book on other stuff but he doesn`t mention vases. What could I be doing wrong please?.
Cheers
Steve
