Default Best Way To Remove Bowl????

I have turned my first bowl and would appreciate advice on how to remove
it from the wooden block it's glued to. I mounted a wood block on my
face plate, and using tightbond glue, attached my blank to it with a
brown paper bag between the block and the blank. Being it's my first
bowl, I dont want to mess it up now, especially because it came out
quite well. Will a good tug free it or should I use my parting tool to
seperate it??


Neither. Find a nice, sturdy knife. Place the edge precisely on the
glue-line. Tap the back of the knife with a mallet. Have something soft
placed to catch the bowl. Sand the remainder of the paper off the base.
