My pleasure. Wood turning is fun and sharing ideas is fun. Win, win all the
way :-)

I have just made the base part and the arm assembly and now have a
uniform cut on my roughing gouge and spindle gouge. I use to think that
they had a could even cut when i free handed on the wet stone but after
2 rotations using the jig i could see area where it hadn't sharpened,
thus poorly done free hand. After getting a even allround cut on the
rough gouge i tested the end and it even felt sharpe. g

I have made one jig part for my bowl gouge, but not having any CA have
had to wait over night for the glue to dry, so shall be trying out the
side to side rolling method for the bowl gouge this morning. Shortly
followed by turning another peice out of the fire wood pile. At this
rate i hope it its not going to be a cold winter as i will only have
shavings to burn.

It only took 1 hr to make the base and arm. The only thing i had to buy
was the dowel £2 for a 4 metre length. I think this works out a lot
cheaper than buying a commercial jig. Thanks Darrell for the great
plans
Mark
