I was to the understanding that adjustment on the jig controlled how far back of the wing was ground. That's not my problem. I'll work on getting a picture to better show what I have.

Wood Turning / Trouble duplicating grind on a Glaser gouge
August 19, 2005, 11:18:41 PM
I am trying to sharpen a bowl gouge from Jerry Glaser, duplicating his grind and having trouble. His grind is similar to David Ellsworth's except the gouge bar is thicker and there is less of a wing.
I confirm the angle by using a sharpie pen, turning the stone by hand and adjusting the tool support in or out till the full black mark is removed.
At this point I start to sharpen, in the center of the gouge the full widthof the metal is grinding, when your turn to the sides (wings) metal is only being removed upper edge, around the first 1/8" or so. I have confirmed this using the sharpie marker. The stone is true and flat.
I can snap a picture and post if that would help.
