What type of chuck/attachment were you using when you turned it back around to finish off the bottom?

It's a vacuum chuck, I just don't turn the vacuum on. You can use any old friction block for that part of the process - a wooden dome on a faceplate with some non-slip shelf liner glued on is a great cheap way to do it

Ah. I actually own a vacuum chuck, so I think I’ll give it a shot. Thanks.

Looks great but center that end shot and add 2 more seconds so we can marvel more at your work for just a moment longer.
