Default Re: Mike Dubber "Speitzer" Graver Point Template set

Going to ask my question that I have about the Spreitzer Point. I have read this thread three times and still have the same dumb question.

Made my first point today with the flat heels. It cuts very deep and straight as heck. Nice. I have not tried the rounded heels yet...but is this point just for straight cuts? Mine doesn't like curves and leaves a mess on the outside edge of the cut. It leaves no mess at all when used in a straight cut...but curves are not neat at all. Is this going to change once I make a point with a curved heel, or does the point really only cut straight lines? If it is supposed to cut nice curves too, can someone point me to a good tutorial with either a good written explanation or maybe even pictures, to show me how, actually to make this point properly? I made it the same way as all Lindsay Templates are made, little, then big template...where am I wrong? Or am I wrong?
Thanks!!!
