[crw-talk] FW: eLetter - Watch: Sharpening Turning Tools

[Bob R]

I echo John's comment, great idea. Sharpening for me is a challenge, even with Wolverine jig, especially spindle & bowl gouges.
I appreciate Mike Mahoney's video.
Thank for sending.

>> Sharper tools mean cleaner cuts. That's why, in this free video from Mike Mahoney's Woodturning Basics video workshop, he gives you step-by-step instructions on how to sharpen a variety of woodturning tools. He explains why it is important to have a 45° bevel angle on most gouges, and how to use an angle finder on the grinder, as well as other techniques, to achieve this bevel.
