My Pfeil gouges all have flat bottoms and do not seem to roll on the rest bar very nice. If I use the 185 jig my 20 deg bevel seems to be something less than 20 deg towards the outer edges of the gouges, particularly in the 25mm-35mm gouge widths. Any suggestions would be welcome.
Adjust the knuckle of the SVD-185 to setting 1 to 2 and try that. I think that somewhere in that range you should be able to get a consistent bevel over a wide gouge.
Hello Jeff, it would have been nice if he had replied and was succesful. I guess he got it to work, that was five years ago.
All the best, Edgar
