Default Rasp for turning

Would a surform rasp or similar have any use on the lathe? I was wondering
if it would be handy for those "chippy" or wrong-way grain turning projects
that really don't want a whole lot of material to be removed at once.

Try it and bring us a report.

I have used a belt sander on a piece while it was turning on the
lathe. Had it turning in reverse at the time and it worked ok. I
forget now what I was working on.
