Hi All,
im seeking some advice on reproducing a gouge profile. The pic is of a factory grind on a Hamlet bowl gouge.
I'm not familiar with this profile and can't seem to find a setting for my Tormek which will reproduce it. Because of the steep included angle (30 deg) and lack of wings I assume it is for getting at the bottom of a deep bowl.
Before I embark on a regring to something more standard with wings, I'm wondering is it worth trying to keep the shape (grinding by hand) and if so, what might be the benefit.
I'm not keen to reshape it now and then regret that decision latter.
Thanks in anticipation, Geoff.
