Move the mouse to position the tool, hold the left button to press it into the spinning wood — on a touch screen, drag with a finger and the tool rides just above it. Too deep a bite causes a catch, and turning too thin snaps the piece. In bowl mode the blank is shown in cutaway: shape the outside from below, then hollow the inside by pressing the tool into the face near the centre line and working outward — the readout shows wall thickness, and going under ~2 mm blows the bowl apart. Pick a target to turn to a template: the dashed outline shows amber where material remains, green where you're on target, red where you've cut too deep. Reach 97% without overcutting for a perfect piece. Changing mode, wood or blank starts a fresh piece.
