I am interested in the Lyle Jamieson 5/8" bowl gouge. I know there are quite a few turners that like this gouge. It sounds like the gouge handles well because of the grind profile he puts on it. I am curious as to whether Lyle's grind profile is easy to maintain when sharpening with the Oneway vari-grind setup. I watched Lyle's sharpening video but I wanted feedback from some of the turners that have the gouge. Any and all comments are appreciated.

Yes, I use the Wolverine jig to sharpen. It is an easy set up. The key is repeatability of the grinder setup to keep it that way. Use the gouge as the template to set the jig.
