If you have not reground a small gouge I would do that before continuing.

Would you post a picture or two when it's convenient to you Gerald for us (ME) turning illiterates?

Steve just keep at it, but that point tool is the secret to the sharp details on the rings . If you have not reground a small gouge I would do that before continuing. I did not believe it could make that much difference til a friend made one , so I tried it. I use it on lots of stuff now.

 

would a pencil sharpener work???

Thanks Gerald, I actually bought the vortex when Cindy demoed at our club, and you're right, it is a great little tool.
