Jack Straka is the guy this chuck is named after. Chucks hold stuff to wood lathes so you can work on them. The basic idea is to take two plywood disks glued together and attach them to a faceplate (it attaches to the wood lathe). Next you bolt a plywood ring to the disks with a wooden bowl sandwiched in between. The chuck makes for sexier bottoms.
The bowl seen in the picture above is red pine with lots of fungi in it. It will be perfect when we seal the fungi into the wood with shellac so it does not rub off on the popcorn. Notice how sexy the bottom is.

HOW TO ORDER A BOWL
The Warped Woodturner (TWW) is a local artist traveling his artist's journey in a suburb of Springbrook, WI (pop. 536). TWW's creative calling is to use a wood lathe to make useless objects from locally-sequestered organic carbon for tourists to bring back to the city to give to people they had to buy something for but do not like that much. His target market is the senior citizens since their vision is not as good as it used to be so cannot see the defects as well. His marketing jingle is: “Bowls as simple as their creator”.
