Normally I use wood glue with a piece of brown paper bag between the work and the faceplate to hold work on the faceplate. This week, Rockler had their double faced tape on sale so I bought a roll.
Long story short, the bowl came flying off the faceplate and broke a big chunk out of the rim.
I clamped the work to the faceplate for an hour before I started turning. It seemed solid, until I started hollowing deeper into the bowl, then it came flying off.
Is there some secret to using it? The wood is dry, sanded smooth on the bottom, prepped like I would to glue it on the face plate. I just didn't want to have to wait overnight for the glue to dry so I used the tape.
