FACEPLATE TURNING
Faceplate turning is when a workpiece is mounted to
the faceplate, which is mounted to the headstock
spindle. This type of turning is usually done with open-
faced workpieces such as bowls.
If screws cannot be placed into the workpiece, then a
backing block must be glued to the workpiece and
attached to the faceplate with screws.
Faceplate Mounting
1. Find the center of your workpiece in the same
manner as when spindle turning.
2. Using a band saw or similar tool, cut off the corners
of the workpiece.
Note: Only use tap screws or wood
screws with non-tapered heads to attach the faceplate
to the workpiece. Do NOT use drywall screws or
screws with tapered heads because these can split the
faceplate or the screws may snap off during operation.
3. Using the centering lines, center the faceplate on
the workpiece and screw the faceplate to the
workpiece.
4. Thread the faceplate onto the headstock spindle
and tighten securely.
Mounting to a Backing Block
1. Make the backing block from a piece of scrap wood that is flat on both sides.
2. Locate and mark the center of both the workpiece and the backing block.
3.
Drill a 1⁄4" diameter hole through the center of the backing block.
4. Using the drilled hole to align the center, glue the center of the backing block to the center of
the workpiece.
5. Clamp the backing block to the workpiece, and wait for the glue to cure according to the
manufacturer’s recommendation.
