Are there any good sources on the web on how to sharpen lathe tools?
Seeing that I am scraping a lot more than I am cutting I will be
sharpening half the time. If you have any jig setup sites that would
be great too. -thanks



Try this:

This did not load (in Firefox nor IE). I have Acrobat Reader 6.

Try:

Then go to 'Widgets/Gizmos' 'A Sharpening System'

It is a pretty slick jig and also has a good explanation on use,
including a long grind on a gouge. Not that it is homebuilt and would be
*really* inexpensive.
