Help! I just can’t get this bowl gouge re-shaping down
Post Body

Hi r/turning

I’m really new to turning. Picked up the Axminster starter tool set and I managed to get a tormek T8 with jigs for a steal off off gumtree.

I’m trying to grind my bowl gouge to "shape 4” 55 degrees but I just can’t get it right. I keep making one edge too thin and it crumbles away and have concave wings.

I’m obviously doing something wrong but do I just suck it up to lack of practice and keep grinding?
