Learn to turn beautiful wood bowls without a chuck in this hands-on course. You'll start by selecting and preparing a bowl blank, then use friction drives, faceplates, and glue blocks to mount it. As you gain confidence, you'll shape the exterior, hollow the interior, and perfect the rim and base. The course covers sanding, finishing techniques, and tips for achieving a seamless, chuckless creation.
