Default Bowl turning question - scraper or gouge?

I'm also getting pretty good at touching them up on the grinder and a quick

Vic,

When you are going to use your bowl gouge to scrape with, sharpen it on
a 100 or 120 grit wheel, but do NOT hone it. When used as a scraper, the
burr does the actual cutting.
