Sanding And Finishing; Setup And Adjustments - Jet JWL-2442-M Mode D'emploi

Mount the work piece (A, Fig 26) directly to the face plate
using 4 wood screws (C) from the back. Be careful to use
screws short enough not to interfere with the cutting
process but long enough to hold the workpiece securely
to the face plate.
If screw mounting is not allowed at all, the work may be
glued to a backing block (D) and the backing block
screwed to the face plate. A piece of paper in the glue
joint will prevent damaging the wood when separated
later.
Mount the face plate with the workpiece already
attached onto the spindle nose thread and hand tighten.
If reversing spindle rotation, make sure face plate, chuck
or vacuum chuck is secured with the set screws.
Move tailstock away, remove centre from tailstock to
prevent injury.
Turn the workpiece by hand to see if it rests securely and
can be rotated freely.
For face plate turning the tool rest is set slightly lower
than centre line.
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
27).

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.
