Thats the beauty of turning and woodwork in general as there ar defferent ways to get something done and always some problems to solve. In your case as they are quite long support becomes more important. Since writing my last comment I looked at the Mike Waldt clip. It looked all good advice for doing that small pot. I noticed he did mention support where possible and did use the tailstock whenever he could. Another point to check is getting a good fit on the chuck jaws. Do it like in the video and things should be fine. Lastly developing a fine cut for bits like that is something to work on and having the tool sharp is important. A scraper can sometimes be handy for really light cuts and less likely to cause a catch.RegardsJohn
