While attempting Mr. Feltmate's icicles, I found that my usual sharpening was not good enough, so I set up my felt honing wheel. That improved the cut, but I still had trouble controlling the tool, because of dings in the toolrest. Then I figured a little smoothing of the toolrest might do the trick. And it did ! The edge is now smooth and bright, and any lack of control is due to lack of skill.
I'm sure even better results could be achieved with a real buffing system.
