Hi Guys,
Im just getting into turning (bowls mostly) and am wondering what the best beginner setup is for sharpening a gouge? I don't want to buy a Tormack Wet Grinder or anything like that, I've already got a 6" high speed dry grinder (3400 rpm) that I'm hopping to put a white wheel on ... will this work? Do I need a slower grinder?
Also, if I am not regrinding the bevel but just sharpening the edge, should I go to the grinder for this? Or should I just hone the edge a bit with a stone?
Thanks for the all help. I'm getting a lot of different answers on this so trying to clarify things.
