Nice CS
Some of the old tools I got from my Dad were files made into lathe tools. I found taking off the filing edge helps just keeep in mind future sharpenings. You can make a couple more shapes too.
.....rummaging through file drawer..... note to self, find OLD files at yard sales.
Great idea CS. Wouldn't have thought of that in a zillion moons. What wheel did you use to grind to half round?

started out with the old grey grind it off quick wheel first, then went on to the white wheel....cooling it off often in water...don't like water use oil for better tempering of the steel.
