If anyone here owns one of these drill sharpeners, would you share
your experience with the device and what you think of it.

Of course, you know that this is a religious question. I recently bought a
Drill Doctor (model #750) and after a few rough starts, I am completely
satisfied with it. There is a good instruction video, worth watching. The
trick, I learned, was to let the cams do the work and not to go too slowly.
I started my practice with drills at about 1/4" which seems to be about the
easiest to sharpen. There is a definite feel to it -- but it is a hell of
a lot easier to master than sharpening by hand. But then, I have a
excellent hand-sharpener when I need to sharpen anything bigger than
/4" -- my son the machinist. I vote for this tool. But you have to learn
the feel.
