I'm trying my first bowl. I have a Jet 1014VSI, a Nova Precision Midi chuck, and it's accompanying worm screw. This is also the first time I've used the chuck.
I can't seem to get the screw started. I used a drill to make a center hole in paduak. When I try to turn the wood blank onto the wood screw with the lathe off, it turns the screw right out of the chuck.
What am I doing wrong? I used a 3/8 drill bit . Hole is about 1/2".
