I’d put a dust collector or industrial shop vac on top of the list...breathing this stuff is very bad....

I have a dust collector with hoods that mount behind the machines to collect them as they are being sanded off. Works really well.

@brock957 there are very small lathes that do a decent job with the stem/tenon. Get one of those when you have your basic skills on shaping the bowl etc. My metal lathe is a Chinese copy of an Emco Unimat 3. It is the size of a sewing machine (I have seen bigger sewing machines). You cannot put a stumble on it but I learned how to turn a good tenon on it.. Most importantly, I learned how to use a lathe. ;-)
