I was taught to do this very young in my mechanic's trade. I too have shown many people how to do this. Great video.

Thank you so much....... I was thinking the other day that I may be needing need drill bits. Not now!

[@whittysworkshop982]

The centre of the metal drill is called the "web", cutting the secondary bevel is known as "web thinning", or if ground more so there is no web it would be a "split point" grind.

[@Dericheau]

can I sharpen drill bits on a cbn wheel?

[@boazjoe1]

I believe the answer is yes as most if not all drill bits are hardened steel.

[@bassrun101]

Should the burr be removed?

[@Gee-bx3zh]

Can this also be done on a cbn wheel?

[@paulpierce4818]

I've always been so poor at this, I always joked I just used a pencil sharpener.
