I sharpen carbide bits now and again with a bench grinder. Light pressure
into the wheel, and try to duplicate the factory slopes and angles.

Carbide bits don't have a curved trailing edge, so you don't use the same
wrist twist when making the cutting edge.

This is Turtle.

Stormy the fellow is sharpening a Masonry drill bit and not just a carbit
bit. Regular Grinder wheel don't cut it. You have to have a special type
wheel to cut the mansonry bit edges. The grinding wheel material has to be
harder than the bit your sharpening.
