This is for my education, other than the flute shape, when do you use one vs the other?
Al, I like your slice show. I'd may like to use it in the class I'll be teaching in early 2022. I'll give you a call about it sometime before thenA few years ago I did a demo called gouges 101. In the demo I showed different gouges, how I sharpen them, and how I use them for a variety of cuts.
The slide show the difference in the tool profiles. most of it is copied from various sources.
In any event you can see the detail gouge has 2/3 of the bar under the flute while the spindle gouge has 1/3 of the flute under the flute.
