Got lucky. Was turning a bowling ball and the tenon broke off. First time that has happened. I was able to hollow it out with my vacuum Chuck and then turn it around and fix the bottom. The bottom got a little thin but I was able to avoid the funnel. I have to do a demo at the club on turning bowling balls in June. Wanted to practice one. Will have to be more careful.IMG_1205.jpegIMG_1206.jpeg
