Very useful Bill. How about some pictures showing how the tips should be
sharpened. I can't help but think that is critical, and there is little
useful information about this on their website.

I see you recommend cutting ON the center line, whereas McNaughton
recommemd on or 'just' below. I have been trying just below to see if
that will stop it bucking and binding. Next time I'll try a little higher.



The tool suffers much in the way of bad press from people who are not using
it correctly.


I think this is one of the shortcomings of the tool - the lack of
instruction that comes with it, or on their website,
http://www.kelton.co.nz/cenuse.html.
Wot, no pictures?

It's a pretty sad company that relies on third parties to give
instructions in use.

Maybe I should cut a partly cored bowl in half to understand what is
going on in there
