Easy and simple freehand sharpening system

I really don't like that saying ' I'll rather spend time turning then sharpening ' , sharpening and turning are so close together and go hand in hand that skills you got on one will transfer to other. There are so many benefiths of sharpening freehand, the worst thing that can happen is that you'll waste some steel in learning process.... But trust me its well worth it and for practicing ,grab used gouge or some cheaper and put in the effort.... Hopefully you'll try it and give it some time and effort.
