Anne used the glue-block method to attach her turning blank to the lathe. She first cut the wood into a circle using the bandsaw, then she hand planed a flat spot for the 2"-thick glue block. A quick application of CA glue held the turning blank and glue block together. The next step was to screw the

faceplate onto the glue block. Because the

wood was large, Anne used six substantial (W screws to insure a secure hold. Using X^W tlie glue block method allowed ^Jine to ^t full use of the two inches of the turning blank. She would need that to ■ accommodate the depth of the salsa bowl.
