using cbn wheel on old gouges Jan 11, 2018 16:48:39 GMT Quote Select PostDeselect PostLink to PostMemberGive GiftBack to Top Post by walnutt on Jan 11, 2018 16:48:39 GMT I am planning on using cbn wheels to sharpen my lathe tools. It is not recommended to sharpen carbon steel on cbn wheels. I have some 40 year old Sorby gouges. Is it save to sharpen them on cbn wheels?
