Bliz,
I round out the nose on the lathe. Finish up with sandpaper. I do the face slop of the pikie on a belt sander. To keep it even I made a small jig (bent a piece of scrap sheet metal) that fits in the lip slot. Once the face has been cut back to so the jig is being hit with the sander, I know its done. Finish up with a sanding block.
