turning tools went dull quick
Now that I have my foot in the door, the questions will start rolling. Actually I find most info using search.
Im using Sorby skew, gouge, and parting tool. I turned a few dowels just to get the hang of the lathe (its been since High School), and then turned a few needles and a popper (white cedar). Went to turn another plug (Im addicted) and cant even get these things to bite a little. Seem really dull. Question...is it normal for the tools to dull that quickly? Just thought they would go a little longer.
Didnt know if Im going to have to sharpen after every few plugs (which I have to figure out how to do).
Thanks
