Sanding And Finishing; Setup And Adjustments; Changing Speed Range - Jet JWL-1221VS Operating Instructions Manual

Caution:
Cut with your chisel on the left side of the turning centre only.
Use left hand to control cutting edge of gouge, while right
hand swings tool handle around toward your body (Fig 18).
Try to make one, very light continuous movement from the
rim to the bottom of the bowl to ensure a clean, sweeping
curve through the workpiece.
Move tool support to the exterior to re-define bottom of bowl.

6.6 Sanding and Finishing

Remove the tool rest and begin with a fine grit sandpaper
(120 grit) and progress through each grit, using only light
pressure.
Use power sanding techniques to avoid concentric sanding
marks.
Finish sanding with 220 grit.
Apply first coat of finish. Allow to dry before sanding again
with 320 or 400 grit sandpaper.
Turn lathe back on and make a separation cut through the
base. Stop at about dia. 80mm and use a fine tooth saw to
separate the bowl from the waste.
Apply additional finish coats and allow to dry before buffing.
