   I have over 200 drill bits that I've collected over the years. Many were ones my father had. He tended to throw the dull ones in a box so he could sharpen them someday. He had a device that used sand or something crazy that blew around in a small bag and that supposedly sharpened the bits. It never worked very well. I keep buying bits, then they get dull and I throw them in that box and buy more. Drill bits are getting expensive so I thought even though this device is expensive for its purpose and I would not need it much if it did work and all my bits were sharpened, I still wanted to see what it could do. I was pleasantly surprised!

   Quite literally, a child can operate this to great result once instructed in its proper set up and use! For crying out loud people, watch almost any YouTube video you can find and rock those bits sharp. Just follow the set up instructions for each and every bit and it will share everything you've got to perfection.

   I have hundreds of dollars in quality drill bits, so it makes perfect sense to have a quality drill bit sharpener. I’ve always sharpened my bits by hand, on the bench grinder, but that requires a very good stone wheel, lots of light, and now that I’m 50, a very good pair of magnifiers, so I finally broke down and bought the this sharpener. I watched a video from Drill Doctor on UTube, before my sharpener arrived. I pulled it out of the box, plugged it in, and immediately sharpened a bit I had burned out while drilling some stainless steel bar stock. The bit is now like new. Love it.

   I suggest practicing on garbage bits first, experimenting with the angles both when you set the depth and then when you set the angle on the final, vertical step. Start with light pressure. You have to be mindful of the cam action when you do the sharpening and keep the chuck in contact with the pin on the body of the device. This will only make sense when you read the directions, watch the video and then get to sharpening.

   This is for a home user. It takes dull bits and makes them useful again. I practiced on a very beat up bit and found it was very easy to set up and use. Written instructions were excellent. I bought the this sharpener for larger bits. I had an expensive specialty 17/32” bit that was hard to find. I was struggling with drilling a hole in 1/2” plate because it was dulled. I sharpened the bit with this drill doctor and was able to easily drill my hole. Some other poster complained it was not precise enough for him. How precise do you have to be to drill a hole for a home user?

   These work! I was skeptical until I borrowed one; watched the video and saw how easy it was to use. The results are so good that I ordered one for myself right away. I fully recommend the this sharpener because of it's greater versatility. It will sharpen all your bits and do it correctly. You do no have to possess any special skill to sharpen your bits like a professional, split points as well. 118 degrees and greater, 135 split points, masonry , etc. The enclosed video is specific and easy to understand. You will be amazed at how easy it is to achieve professional results. I have a lot of drill bits and now all of them are sharp and cut great.
