Bowl gouge and hollow tool sharpening
I put this video together last night to show how to correct bad sharpening of a bowl gouge. I also added how I sharpen my hollowing tools and a dovetail rebate tool. Hope it helps.

Thank you for posting. I have a carbide tip tool, but I haven't known how to sharpen it properly (I just starting turning about a year ago). I was using my bowl gouge jig, but that was making the tip to pointy.
