  See if this helps any. The first picture shows a well ground edge.Next I run a series of short flakes and then grind them down. This starts making it Ovate.Grind the edge again, and then run another set of flakes on top of the first set. But push harder this time.Then repeat the same procedure on the other edge and the flakes meet up inthe middle

mullet:
 Sorry about the pictures, I think I took about 30 because of the bright sun and the glare.
