Hey all

I sometimes get spiral grooves when attempting a planing cut with my skew.

I found an old thread here which was quite helpful but I feel like it didn't quite get to the bottom of it.

I'm wondering if a hollow grind has anything to do with it. I typically grind on a 220 CBN using whatever the skew setting on the angle jig that came with the Wolverine tool rest system. It says 20-40* or something like that.

I then hone on a 600/1200 dmt plate as needed.

Any theories on whether a hollow ground skew will keep the bevel from having a adequate riding surface and result in a skipped cut? The resulting cut is very clean, it's just bumpy as all get out.

I'm using a standard 3/4" Ashley Iles skew if it matters.

I'm turning more and more furniture legs and would like to remove the sanding step until after assembly.
