Thanks Lenny, the picture makes more sense now. I use a lighter shaft, 1/2",
on the 3/16" tools and a 5/8" shaft on the 1/4". I think it lets me get a
bit closer for cuts inside a bowl. The first thing I do for an edge is to
use a rough grind stone to give a 45* angle and then use the fine stone to
refine the edge and round it a touch. I use jigs for the latter but free
hand is not hard.
