Default Re: Drill bits

Youtuber 'Moonfleet41' has done a practical review of a budget drill bit sharpener available from more than one UK outlet. Lacking the will to dress my bench grinder wheels properly and learn how to regrind drill bits manually, i think i may get one. It looks a bit plasticky and if you constantly reground badly damaged 10mm bits with it the stone wouldn't last too long, but it does seem to take care of the correct angles, and gives an accurate centre to avoid drill wobble. It relies on a drill to power it (fair enough; why pay for an extra electric motor that you only use occasionally?)
