You have some nice stuff on the turning page. I use essentially the same set
up for sharpening the Oland tool as you are using for the bowl gouge. If you
shorten the leg on the holding jig a little and sharpen the tip to 45* it
should work well. There is a video about half way down this page. I use this
with 1/8" Olands with no trouble.

Thanks again. I'm a beginner.
I forgot to mention that the bit I am referring to is 3/16".
The larger bits are no problem, but this tiny one wants to dig into
the wheel. It could be that it is a poor quality wheel and contains
voids that the bit catches in. I'll try it again, but the last time it
removed a small divot from the wheel.
