In this video, Ronald shows when and why it can be useful to turn the lathe in the other direction!
The gouge used is a 13 mm bowl gouge. The "wings" are grounded at a 45 degree angle and the sharpening angle is just under 45 degrees. Give it a try! Make sure that the chuck is secured, so that it cannot unscrew...
