Default Sharpening Brad Point drill bits.

On Wed, 21 Dec 2005 05:57:49 GMT, with neither quill nor qualm, max
quickly quoth:

I use a diamond hone. The ones I have are mounted on a plastic backing. I
file the flat, (on a chisel it would be the back) and then touch up the
bevel and they work really well.

Please don't top post, Max.


Does anyone have experience with sharpening brad point drill bits?


Grizzly has a $6 diamond hone cone which works well if you don't have
one of Lee Valley's auger bit files. The diamond works on wee bits.
