Well, the Tormeck is an expensive machine. So it would make sense that it's
attachments would be expensive as well.

That said, it has a big wheel that moves slowly. I would imagine the
engineering and physics of a drill sharpening attachment would be different
than more traditional arrangements. Which may explain some of the hefty
price.

I don't think that very many people who are looking for something to sharpen
drill bits are going to run out and buy a Tormek. But I have seen some
expensive drill sharpeners for metal shops that do a first class job and
sharpen drills in volume. And the price would be similar to this setup or a
little less.

Soooo....., this seems to be an expensive accessory for the folks who
already own a Tormeck. After all, they have demonstrated an active interest
in sharpening things.
