I try to lightly grind my chisel and spindle gouges, but I
keep getting a burr. Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Hard to say without knowing your sharpening equipment and technique..

Most turners produce a small burr when sharpening and just go with it..
I'm starting to home my gouges more now.. tapered round diamond hone does it in
about 3 passes and can also be renewed a bit with the same hone..

On scrapers, you use the burr to cut with..

Take a stone to the burr. Or not. The burr will be gone after the first
rotation.

If he were a Lancer, he'd have a long stick with a pointy end and would not
need a 9 iron. :o)

OTOH, I've turned some teensie stuff with a big nail.

Downhill, in most cases, round off the edges of the blade so they don't hang up
on any nicks in the tool rest..
