Hi All,
This is kind of a silly question, but what do you use to prep a natural edge bowl for face plate mounting? On smaller bowls (10") I have just been drilling through the bark, but now with a larger lathe I think I need to worry about getting an even surface and stronger hold. I have seen YouTube videos where they use some sort of chisel to chip away the bark to make a flat for the face plate, but wasn't even sure what tool they were using. Also was curious to see how others do it.
Thanks in advance,
Tom
