Hey, folks,
Just recieved my MONSTER +4 lathe tool (as seen on this page) http://www.monster-wood-tool.com/wst_page4.php
Even though I've only had a few minutes to play with it, it really does seem quite nice. But I'm not really sure how to sharpen it. My best guess is that it's the burr that cuts, right? So really, it needs to be treated more like a card scraper than a gouge, right? And that means burnishing instead of grinding?
Any tips or hints, at all, would be helpful...
Thanks,
Bill
