[QUOTE="tinman, post: 4670338, member: 11821"] alright J. rough em out with the coarse wheel if you really have to and finish with the fine one. its a trial and error game, had a lecturer at a college who could put a damn fine edge on a bit by the eye and when gauged up was pretty damn close in fairness, i asked him how long he was sharpening drills for and he said over 30 years and he was still learning how to do it right.... you could get yourself a drill gauge, quality ones on the bay are sharp but less would do. or the two nuts together trick is fiddly but acurate enough. maybe get jiggy with the grinder table and fashion up cork version, what with a guide that ill slide on the edge of it to keep you on the angle, there be videos of such contraptions. or there's the controversial drill bit sharpener add-on if you want to cheat a bit. either way in no time at all you'll be dishing out the likes of this beauty...
