Probably a silly question, but not to worry - it wouldn't be my first......
I've just glued up a slant lamination, (below), and was thinking about the best approach to cutting, since unless I'm cutting in at a sharp angle, for half the time the cut is against the grain.
Bowl gouge, spindle gouge, or take the easy way out and use carbide tools?
I have a very cheap Chinese 1" skew as well, but it loses it's edge the moment it touches hardwood, so I'd rather avoid it.
(I had no problems with the roughing gouge, but honed it a couple of times to keep it sharp.)
