Default Grinding a blank lathe tool for parting or cutoff

Ive used some 3/8 & 1/2 square tools that were factory ground to
about 1/16 on the end for parting
and cutoff. They work great but when I tried to reproduce one from a
blank, well the results werent very good and it takes forever to grind
away that much material. Has anyone ever ground there own ?
