  • hey do you think you could do a video where you drill and you stick a metal pole in the things that comeo off the driller?

    just to show how serious you can get injured from trying.

  • @rogantu sounds too dangerous

  • Perfect explanation of drill bit sharpening. I have done it for many years on a bench grinder but never on a disc. I worked in many shops and never saw one mounted to a motor like that. Nice! Have to find one like that.

  • @Kraftsman100 they do work well, but get at least a 12"

  • Good video man. Wax lube is really good for stainless, it melts when it should and runs down the bit into the hole. Not sure if you've done this, but if you have to drill stainless with a hand drill, a series of short bumps on the trigger works much better than turning the bit slowly.

  • @ArtistBlade1972 yeah, like walter coolcut, I try to avoid hand drilling SS but when i do I start with a small pilot hole

see all

  • what about cobalt bits. your opinions?

  • HI DAN, I LIKE YOUR VIDEO ON DRILL BIT SHARPING. I HAVE BEEN RESHARPENING MY BITS FOR YEARS AND YOUR INFORMATION IS RE-INFORCEING MY SKILLS. I LEARNED FROM A TEACHER FOR AC AND REFRIGATION REPAIR, HE SAID WHEN YOU LEARN TO SHARPEN DRILL BITS THE REST OF THE COURSE IS GRAVY. HE WAS RIGHT AS YOU ARE. FUNNY I LIVE HEAR IN WAYNE AND I TOOK 24" OF WATER IN MY SHOP, SO I WILL BE SHARPENING BITS FOR A WHILE, THANKS TONY G
