drill bit sharpener

[ae71]

these probably 50 bloody bits sitting on my bench and they are all fooked. well, blunt as can be anyway.

any recommended sharpeners for drill bits? dont want to pay a shit load for one, can i get one that works?

[lolwat]

[ae71]

i suck and have trouble getting the angles right

agree with lolwat;


get a linisher belt, watch some youtube vids... practice


???


Profit

[lolwat]

youtube links and make your self a guage(get angle from google) make out of metal plate and use that as a guide for the angle (get the angle right and twist it as you go over the wheel)

Just get two hex nuts M12 should be big enough, hole them together on a flat edge n match you bit against that.

(flat edge being a flat side on either nut)

ive done it with a 6 onch grinder,bench grinder, linsher and disk sander and we also have a drill sharpener at work it spins on a handle then goes in and out to suit drill.

we have one at home. i havent used it yet but its awesome to not pick up a drill that my retarted brother has ground off centre.

get them from usa ebay. at least half the price. you need a transfromer though...
