I downloaded some grids...printed out and am using them.
Just had to figure out 1/3 of a half inch. Somewhere around 1/6".
What I've seen online is that 1/3 of the diameter of the turning tool looks best.

Here's my practice aluminum piece...my final piece will be on the flip side...it's mirror polished.
Two different diameter turning tools. The 1/2" one is leather glued to a dowel and a hybrid of valve lapping compound and rubbing compound.
