Drill Doctor DD500X Twist Drill Bit Sharpener - 3/32" to 1/2" - Electric Sharpener - High Speed & Portable - for Steel, Masonry, Carbide & Tin-Coated Drill Bits - Adjustable 118° or 135° Angle

Parfait attention c est en 110 v

I had a Drill Doctor 350 which was ok but it could only sharpen an angle of 118. I drill a lot of metal and 135 is a better angle for this material. I upgraded to the 500 and WOW am I ever impressed. The 500 can sharpen both angles and do it well. There’s not big learning curve either. There’s a video on using it as well as a pretty good manual included. I honestly don’t think I’ll ever need to any new bits for quite some time.

Ok, I probably have well over 200 dull/damaged bits that been amassing which I been meaning to sharpen but doing it by hand or belt grinder was hit or miss with me. So bought the Drill Doctor 500X, read directions, watched 2 videos on line and was off to the races and I am not in the trades. So first bit I did, I decided to make a challenge so I used my belt grinder to flatten it completely to see if I could get in reshaped and split again with the device. Once I accomplished that, took about 20 minutes till it was like new, I really starting flying through dull bits. I like to suggest practice using larger diameter bit when you first get it , this way can really see what's going on with your surfaces, chisel, heel and cutting edge, etc and you'll see what your doing wrong quickly and can adjust technique [like not clamping on thinnest part of bit, very important, hehe]. So my 1st bit took 20min to fully reshape and split the point on and test it out and I felt really comfortable with the sharpener after that. Had it 2 days and already I can touch up a bit in 2 to 3 minutes and completely reshape a badly damaged one in less then 10 minutes. Probably did a hundred bits by now and average maybe 2 failures in 10 that Im not satisfied with and will redo them but that's easy, re-clamp, align and sharpen, done. Haven't found a bit I couldn't sharpen yet using this. Only bad part is I'm running out of dull bits already and was finding it almost therapeutic sharpening drill bits with this in garage...maybe have to call some friends and offer to sharpen their bits for them just for fun, lol. Seriously though, good product, well built, easy to use and does amazing job, thanks Drill Doctor!
